Learning PHP and MySQL—Is Laravel the Next Step?

I’m currently learning PHP and MySQL and getting more comfortable with server-side development and database management. As I move forward, I’m thinking about what to learn next. I’ve heard a lot about Laravel and its powerful features, but I’m not sure if it’s the right choice just yet, considering I’m still familiarizing myself with PHP and MySQL. Is Laravel a good next step, or should I focus on mastering PHP and MySQL more before diving into a full framework? I’d love to hear your thoughts or recommendations from those who’ve been through this learning path!

Laravel is a great next step, it's the most popular framework in the PHP ecosystem. If you are getting more comfortable, probably it's the right time to try Laravel.
