This guide outlines the core concepts of , focusing on building secure, scalable, and maintainable web applications by organizing code into independent, reusable "tiers" or "modules" . Core Concepts of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
: Bundling data and the methods that operate on that data within a single object, often restricting direct access to prevent unintended interference.
