About

DirectPHP

I wrote the first version of DirectPHP back in 2008. I wanted to embed some PHP codes in my own websites. Couldn't find a simple and easy-to-use one. So I wrote this. I thought this might be useful to others. That's why I decided to share this plugin on https://extensions.joomla.org.

I was actually very surprised that this plugin is still in use. At that time, there were many commercially available plugins by professional developers. Thought there would be even more such plugins after all these years.

In any case, thanks for your support for DirectPHP for so many years!

More Than Just DirectPHP

This site is more than just a home for DirectPHP. You’ll also find over 500 sample codes for PHP-GTK2.

If you're new to PHP-GTK2, it's an extension of PHP that lets you build cross-platform, standalone desktop applications. Think Point-of-Sale (POS) systems, kiosk applications, MP3 players, or even instant messengers.

When I started learning PHP-GTK2, I struggled to find helpful sample code online. Many generous people supported me on my journey, and this website is my way of giving back. The sample codes and tips here are designed to help you navigate PHP-GTK2 more easily, just like others helped me.
