It will save yourself a lot of frustration if you start with a clean slate. 
Nothing from PHP, Javascript, etc. is going to directly map onto wikitext. 
We had a semi-famous, published developer here, and he was in a kind of 
state of disbelief as we tried to explain how things worked.

In TW, it's about widgets (especially the list widget), macros (which are 
also a kind of variable), filters, and transclusions. Those are the tools 
we're given, and this is the world we live in. It's easy. But it's very, 
very different.
