Accelerate PHP performance with AI by generating, refining, and optimizing code using modern patterns, async workflows, and secure design
Key Features
- Use Generative AI to write, optimize, and debug PHP 8 code in real-world scenarios
- Build high-performance applications using JIT, OPcache, Fibers, and async programming
- Implement robust encryption, CAPTCHA, session protection, and test-driven development with AI assistance
Book Description
PHP offers several powerful features, but many developers struggle to apply them effectively in real-world applications while maintaining performance, security, and code quality. This book addresses that challenge by combining modern PHP practices with generative AI to help you build faster and more reliably.
You will work through hands-on recipes that show how to design, generate, and refine PHP 8 applications using AI alongside proven engineering techniques. From writing clean object-oriented code and designing scalable architectures to automating repetitive tasks, you will learn how to use AI as a development aid without losing control over quality.
As you progress, you will optimize applications using OPcache, JIT, and async programming, while applying secure coding practices and modern design patterns. The book also explores real-world use cases, including REST APIs, microservices, WebSocket applications, and database-driven systems, helping you translate concepts into production-ready solutions.
You will also learn how to modernize legacy PHP codebases, validate AI-generated code, and integrate testing workflows to improve reliability and maintainability. Additionally, you will understand how to enhance PHP websites by making API calls to GenAI platforms.
By the end of this book, you will be able to combine PHP and generative AI effectively to build secure, high-performance applications ready for real-world deployment.
What you will learn
- Use GenAI prompts to generate, refactor, and optimize PHP classes and functions
- Create high-performance apps using JIT, OPcache, and async programming
- Build secure web apps with session protection, encryption, CAPTCHA, and token-based forms
- Work with databases using AI-generated queries and caching strategies
- Design scalable systems with OOP, design patterns, and microservices
- Develop REST APIs, WebSockets, and real-time applications using AI assistance
- Apply test-driven development with AI-generated acceptance criteria and automated tests
Who this book is for
This book is for PHP developers who already understand the basics of PHP, including variables, functions, and object-oriented programming, and have worked with earlier versions of PHP. It's aimed at developers who want to use generative AI tools to improve their day-to-day development workflow and build applications faster.
Readers will learn through practical, real-world examples as they explore modern PHP features. The book is ideal for developers who want to leverage AI-powered coding tools while still maintaining control over the quality, security, and reliability of the code.

About the Author
Doug Bierer has been hooked on computers since his first program, written on a DEC PDP-8, in 1971. In his wide-ranging career, he has been a professional contract programmer since 1978, having written applications in BASIC, PL/I, assembler, FORTH, C, C++, dBase/FoxBase/Clipper, Pascal, Perl, Java, and PHP. He deployed his first website in 1993 while living in San Francisco. Since January 2023, he has worked extensively with various AI tools and has used models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and xAI. He speaks four (human) languages, has traveled to cities on four continents, and now resides in Cambodia. He is author of multiple technical books and loves sharing his knowledge.
Rainier Sarabia is a Software Engineering Manager, who currently works in Melbourne, Australia for Astute Payroll, a Deel company. He has worked on hundreds of complex software projects, including massive enterprise SaaS products while leading and training senior engineers from all over the world. His favorite programming languages are PHP, C#, Java, and Javascript which he uses for both professional and personal projects. He co-founded his first tech company back in 2014, with over 400,000 users. Outside of working hours, he is an amateur astronomer. He spends most of his time doing astrophotography focusing on deep-sky objects like nebulae and galaxies.
