Hype 3 with JSON and PHP

Morning All, Firstly I am new to Hype and had a question yesterday and would just like to say its refreshing to be part of a forum where you actually get answers so thank you for that.

JSON to File example

Hi, this is a simple setup to collect some data and store it as JSON in a txt-file on a server. Makes use of jquery to access a small php-script which writes the file … and should give you a good start. Usecase: e.g. store playerdata of a hypegame permissions: php should be 644, filesdirectory should be 766 (for testing you may use 777) JSON_To_File.zip (168.2 KB)

So many of the tutorials have been focusing on javascript and jQuery but you can definitely create a Hype front end to a PHP backend set of data.

I would definitely explore some of the PHP libraries and then practice with those to get your backend up and running quickly so you can focus on the hooks necessary to display with your Hype elements.

For example:
intervention Image is an open source PHP image handling and manipulation library. It provides an easier and expressive way to create, edit, and compose images and supports currently the two most common image processing libraries GD Library and Imagick.
