What would be the best language to use for my website?
Im creating a website to put onto my portfolio and for people to use. It will allow people to upload work, connect multiple tags to the post and then allow other people to search through posts, recommended them posts and filter posts through multiple tags. Im thinking of using HTML and CSS obviously but i think php would be the best bet, what do you think?

The best option for backend language in your case would be PHP. You are right.

Learn Html first and css and add the interactivity of the page with Javascript.
You can also learn php and just query for its backend

Nikita I think you are pointing towards a full-stack web development. Then it will be necessary to learn those codes, which Joshua Burg [#KeepLearning!] suggested along with a framework and a library and a programming languages like PHP, Python or Java etc.

I think php is a great back-end language if you need forms and email. Html css bootstrap 4 and javascript are imoprtant if you want an interactive responsive website.

Sorry, but php is definitly NOT the best bet for the backend. First for the frontend you HAVE to learn javascript to add functionality to your page. But for the backend, there are much better options than php, including:
Asp.net with c#
Node.js with javascript
and ruby with rails
Of course, there are countless options for the backend, but these are my top three.
Hope this helps!

I already know HTML, CSS and a decent amount of JavaScript. I've built basic websites before to build up a portfolio. I want to get into more back end programming and thought a project like this would be great to work on and put everything together! :)
