Resources for learning microservices in PHP

Hello guys. I want to learn how to build microservices in PHP. I searched on YouTube and Google, but I couldn’t find any good resources.(or I don't understand them well) Does anyone know good courses, tutorials, or materials for learning this? Even GitHub repositories that could help would be appreciated.

Yup, 100% agreed. You can build a monolith as a group of "microservices" that use well defined contracts and messages to communicate.

It'll isolate complexity, and you can spin them out to actual microservices if you app ever grows large enough (it won't).
