I have basic knowledge on Programming Language. So that it will not hard for me to learn new programming language.
If I want to develop Bitcoin PTC site which will use FaucetHub API. And to develop such project, I should have knowledge on HTML, CSS, Javascript, JSON, MY SQL, PHP. What do you think what other language should I learn. Smiley

I dont know much about programming language, but as a clicker for a long time i think php, mysql and a little javascript (and css for design) are enough to make a ptc site.

You should know HTML, CSS and JS to design your website.
There is lots of options for back end. You can use PHP, ASP.NET, Python Django, Ruby on Rails and more.

I advice you to use PHP or Python. All languages have their advantages and disadvantages. I use PHP and I think it is fine.

You don't need to know any other languages.

I tried a lot in the last 10 years. After beeing myself a long time into PHP and vanilla Javascript, everything, everone (and me) is shifting to Frameworks. PHP and plain Javascript, CSS is maybe a little bit "old-scool" and more usefull for these "good old" static webpages.

Today everthing (user experience) must be reactive and "realtime".

My recommandation would be to keep it simple in the beginning. Concentrate on one language (Javascript) only (there is still enough to learn).

Maybe start with MeteorJS. You get realtime Client/Server-communication backed by a MongoDB out of the box without any configuration. There are many tutorials for the meteor-framework.

Later you could / should switch to
 Clientside: ReactJS for Web-Development and React Native for Mobile-Dev.
 Serverside: NodeJS with MongoDB

Thats all you need.

Well most of the ptc websites use php and mysql for user databases for backend, as for front end you should know how to code in html and css, if you can learn a front end framework like bootstrap it help you a lot, also let me tell you that, developing a ptc website from scratch is no easy task, you will have to keep in mind all the edge scenarios. if you are a total newbie i won't recommend you to make a ptc website as your first project. Go small and then go big when you think you have all the skills polished, anyway good luck with this project.

In short, learn html css Javascript jquery ajax php and mysql, you should be good to go.

As I am newbie what I observe is Java is comfort enough which has more potential in programming.

I think learning the LAMP stack would be beneficial (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP).  So the basic necessities for the site you wish to build would be PHP, MySQL (sql), HTML, Javascript and CSS if you wish to style your site. Do your best to develop the site without the use of frameworks / external libraries unless they are absolutely required. It may take more time, but you'll learn a lot more in the process.

In the future, I would take a look into Python as a secondary language to learn.

Good luck!

You do not need to learn another programming language, enough PHP and Javascript for these purposes.
If you want modern project, learn node.js and react.js.

Exactly. It's really not about what language can interact with the API, It's which language you want to learn. However, I wouldn't exactly pick something like Java for this when compared to PHP. You would be able to learn PHP quicker (due to less of a learning curve) and have something out in production quicker with less setup time.

FaucetHub also has a PHP Library for interacting with their API, which may make your life a little easier. But if using a library, do your best to fundamentally understand how the library works instead of just using it and forgetting it.
