I'm a professional PHP, Python and Javascript developer from the UK. I've worked with Django, Laravel, and React, among others. I also maintain a legacy Zend 1 application.
I maintain a Zend 1 legacy application with a long list of issues stemming from years of neglect, bad design decisions (such as the bright spark who said "Let's not use the built-in table gateway classes, we'll roll our own models for that"), and copy and paste coding. It's definitely taught me a lot about refactoring, but it does emphasise the fact that PHP was a lot worse in the past than it is now.
Ahhh. You've not seen a mess until you see my app (patch.team). Though to be fair to myself I knew pretty much zero about programming before building it (I used the whole 'if you're gonna learn something- build something' approach). Talk about a monolithic spaghetti mess!! Was fun though.
