Getting Started with Linux

What is Linux?

Linux is an operating system that evolved from a kernel created by Linus Torvalds when he was a student at the University of Helsinki. Generally, it is obvious to most people what Linux is. However, both for political and practical reasons, it needs to be explained further. To say that Linux is an operating system means that it's meant to be used as an alternative to other operating systems like MS-DOS, the various versions of MS Windows, Mac OS, Solaris and others. Linux is not a program like a word processor and is not a set of programs like an office suite.

PHP.JS is an open source project in which we try to port PHP functions to JavaScript. By including the PHP.JS library in your own projects, you can use your favorite PHP functions client-side.

Using PHP.JS may speed up development for PHP developers who are increasingly confronted with client-side technology.

It also offers added functionality because JavaScript does not natively support higher-level functions such as: file_get_contents(), mktime(), serialize().

PHP.JS is nothing fancy like jQuery—we're just offering PHP functions, with all of their original flaws and benefits for whomever needs them.
