Sessions is a core part of PHP. In this case file you'll learn what it is, why it matters, and how to use it in real code.

Understanding sessions well means you can read other people's PHP code with confidence, and avoid the most common beginner mistakes in this area.

Key points:

• What sessions means in the context of PHP
• A minimal example you can run or read in the playground on the right
• A common mistake to avoid when working with sessions
