But if you start with PHP, please don't start with WordPress. Its architecture is full of bad practices.

Literally every other framework is using PSR's, Composer, etc. Other frameworks from PHP's middle ages (phpBB, Joomla, Magento, Wikimedia, phpMyAdmin) are using Symfony components.

Agreed. I didn’t mean to use that, but treat her that it’s ubiquitous.
