Not for 'how-to' coding questions but PHP theory instead, this forum is here for those of us who wish to learn about design aspects of programming with PHP.
Hello,
First of all, I am new to PHP programming and kinda lost in its code. I started to learn php because of a friend oh mine that needs to have a system designed for her Hair Cutting Shop. First, I need to create a Login system (registration ect), which I'm pretty sure I can do. Next, i have to have the Logged in uer be abled to schedule an appointment. The user has to chose the person who he/she wants to cut their hair, and then chose an avaible time slot on the days that the Hair Cutter works. Does anyone know how I should approach this, or how I can do this? Without getting lost in lines and lines of coding. Please remeber, I am a beginner in PHP . Thanks

Definitely gonna need a MySQL database or some other DB for a backend to store the data. I doubt there's anything like this out there, so you're probably just gonna have to dive in and start getting your hands dirty with code. It doesn't sound like a very complicated thing to do, so even though you are a beginner, it could be a very nice, manageable project to get you started and help you learn.
And remember, we are always here to help along the way. I know you're not gonna get anyone to do the work for you, but we'll be more than happy to guide you and answer questions.
There is also the SQLite option. It would be a lot easier to maintain the system as a whole. And based on the application, it's questionable if he'd need a full blown RDBMS.
