KEYWORDS: data modeling, data structures and algorithms,

Projects to work on

  • One project I would seriously recommend you eventually build is an Exercise Atlas.
  • anatomy + exercise science + biomechanics + PHP + MySQL + data structures + visualization. That is much more distinctive than simply becoming another PHP developer.
  • So for you I'd set the threshold at approximately 100–150 serious hours of C, then begin the PHP Internals Book while continuing C alongside it. You absolutely don't need 500–1000 hours before touching php-src.

So your first analytics stack could simply be:

MySQL ↓ PHP ↓ JSON ↓ JavaScript (interactive visualization) ↓ Chart.js

Main DOMAIN of interest:

  • Human Anatomy, Biomechanics and Exercise selection
  • I want to know which muscles are engaged when performing movements (I test all exercises and learn which muscles get involved)

SUPPORTING CORE SOFTWARE stack:

PHP, MySQL, JavaScript

VISUALIZATION LAYER:

CSS, Chart.js, Three.js

SCIENTIFIC TOOLBOX — later

Python, NumPy, pandas, SciPy
