I wanted to program a file hosting app but have no clue where to start. I already learned the php syntax as I have experience with other languages but have never done anything in php or created a program for a website.
I’d start with this: PHP: Handling file uploads - Manual
Make your HTML form, play about with the upload process and write code that limits what files can be uploaded and what size.
I think you’ll also have to think carefully about how you’re going to store all these files. One way is to use blob types in MySQL, but I don’t know enough about that to offer meaningful help.
Thank you. I forgot about the php manual. It should get me started
