I am new in linux and installed xubuntu a week ago and installed apache on the xubuntu some days ago.
Now I like to install PHP

(Q) Where should I download the PHP installation file which can install PHP on the xubuntu after apache installation?
 


Maybe I'm missing something here but why not just use the default apt install?

sudo apt install php

(Q1) what does it mean by apt? What is the full word for "apt"?

(Q2) How can I just use the default apt install?

apt-cache pkgnames | grep php

Code:
apt install php -y
apt install php-{bcmath,bz2,intl,gd,mbstring,mysql,zip,fpm} -y
Code:

PHP 7.2.10-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (cli) (built: Sep 13 2018 13:45:02) ( NTS )

The main config file of PHP 7.2 will be saved as /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini. You can use the vi text editor to modify relevant settings in that file:
Code:
vi /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini
