You have to close `if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {` with a curly brace `}` — The fourth bird, Jan 13 '19 at 11:53
Please extract a [mcve]. Also, as a new user, take the [tour] and read [ask]. — Ulrich Eckhardt, Jan 13 '19 at 11:54

You should close { after die() statement. So it will look like this.

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];


$connection = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'root', 'loginapp');

    if($connection) {

    echo "We are connected";

    } else {
    }

    die("Database connection failed");
}



?>

problem is you haven't closed your if condition's scope so change the php file like this

<?php  if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];


    $connection = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'root', 'loginapp');

        if($connection) {

        echo "We are connected";

        } else {
        }

        die("Database connection failed");

    } //you are missing this } add it

 ?>
