I use PHP to generate SVG code. I love using iterations (loops) and some random values.

I used PHP mainly to create online systems and websites. I draw with Illustrator. I code with Dreamweaver. Until I merged the 2 and obliged myself to draw with code. And indeed I start from scratch, from an empty screen.
