I was finally hired as a programmer. But I know “nothing”
I've finally got my first opportunity as a Php web developer. The thing is: I know very ,very little of Php... I studied programming logic while i was still in the college, and as my IT career went on (I've always worked with IT infraestructure, plus 3 months as a Php developer... Six years ago), I also learned OOP with Java. Well, I know I'm not completely noob at coding, but I know I'm light years away from full-time developers. They hired me... I hope I was clear enough by saying I know very, very little of Php. Again: the hired me. I'm happy but somewhat insecure.
What you guys would recommend me , in order to to accelerate my learning process? Considering I was hired and immediately kicked into the frontline haha
By the way, I've just had my second day at the office, and I'm still struggling with GIT ,wich I'm not familiarized with, at all...

It's absolutely okay to struggle with Git. I think I only sort of figured it out after about a year of using it full-time, and that's me using source control systems for 12+ years previous. A few years on, I'm very comfortable with it, but still have to google some rare corner cases.
As to getting familiar with PHP, like with anything else, there's nothing better than regular practice. Upskill by writing your own code, by asking people to review it, by looking at their code. Check out edx.org or udemy.com for any courses specifically on PHP and server-side scripting in general.
There's many rewards for curious programmers, so stay curious and you will learn and improve.

Hey , pal! Well, some other people have just told the same as you regarding GIT. And considering your experience with that, i feel more relaxed by reading it hehe. Curiosity is something I have (I think that's why I've chosen to work with IT). I've been wandering on the last days if I could develop something ,at home, to help me out with anything in my routine... I'll take your advice seriously.
