PHP and MVC Architecture

The Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern is commonly used in web development to organize code and separate logic.

Understanding MVC

• Model: The data and logic of the application. It communicates with the database.
• View: The user interface. It displays data to the user.
• Controller: The intermediary that handles user input and updates the model and view accordingly.

Simple MVC Example

In a simple MVC structure:

      
        <?php
        // Controller (controller.php)
        require_once 'model.php';
        $model = new Model();
        $data = $model->getData();
        include 'view.php'; // View
        
        // Model (model.php)
        class Model {
          public function getData() {
            return "Hello from the model!";
          }
        }
        
        // View (view.php)
        echo $data;
        ?>
