    As someone who has been learning PHP for 3 months, I caught on to this after 4 years of JavaScript land. I've always wanted to understand the backend but after trying node js and express js, i just knew that something was wrong. It felt like I was doing too much to get so little done. It's going to be PHP for me from now moving forward as far as backend.

      exactly. Express is so barebones that you're going to have to keep adding more and more packages. Then when you want something that has both backend and frontend code, that's not possible. You got to keep doing frontend when all you want is some html and css there.

      PHP has everything already baked in. However, PHP is not the best for high performance situations where you need concurrency and CPU intensive tasks. For that reason, I advocate for Go instead, as it's simpler, compiles to native code and is generally easier to learn. It just depends on what use case you have.

    Guys, PHP will always be the mother of all the web. Yes many languages are getting more publicity and glory and there is nothing competitive about that. It is always a good thing for us developers to be or to have as many options out there but coming back to reality, PHP and JAVA and C are the Classic languages that needs no introduction nor promotion. This are the languages that don't need to do anything to win the market share, They are just the Gods and they know it.

    I tend to use Django with React. But I actually love PHP it was my first language which introduced me to the idea of spinning up a server and rendering some HTML onto your browser. When I first experienced PHP alongside XAMP or WAMP I was amazed how quickly you were able to run a localhost. The only thing I wasn't crazy about with PHP was the requirement of launched using these tools, XAMPP or WAMP. Is there a way to run a server without these tools? Is there a way to spin up a server in a different way?

    • @lionelthetechlead8839
      @lionelthetechlead8839  4 месяца назад

      X AMPP and W AMP is made out of Apache Mysql PHP which is the "AMP". It provides a nice package that works together. Without mysql you wouldn't be able to store anything and even Django needs a database. You'll still need to install PHP language. You could use PHP's inbuilt server 'php -S localhost:8000' but why would you want to do that since it's not robust to handle lots of calls. Apache or nginx are written in C and have full power access on the server optimized giving PHP the multi thread and optimized delivery. There are ways to set them up differently but since xamp and wamp are so easy why bother configuring your own server? Even better you can just spin up a container docker cluster with DDev and having everything ready to go. It's still A-M-P but in a nice package.

    I agree with some of what you're saying. The one thing I really am disagreeing with is when you talk about "the level of javascript vs PHP". In software engineering, we discovered there's a point at which the amount of javascript vs PHP that should be used. I'm a huge fan of PHP and have been using it for over 15 years. As you build out your apps and they get larger, there is a HUGE benefit for using more javascript. For the last 5 years, I've used less PHP in efforts to reduce server load and its been working. PHP is not Multithreaded (there are ways to do that using the Thread class), which means it can't handle asynchronous operations well. We let the server to SOME of the heavy lifting up to a performance specification, then let JS take over. There's a sweet spot, you just have to find it with lots of testing.

    • @lionelthetechlead8839
      @lionelthetechlead8839  4 месяца назад

      woah... there's some things to unpack there. First when you say server and let JS takeover, JS is still running on the server and running backend functionality. In fact JS is simply running the V8 engine that's compiling JS so it is handling things on the server side. Now one of the greatest myths out there is about multithread and blocking. PHP is single thread and blocking. However, Apache and Nginx which are the webserver that sit on top of PHP and Nginx are multithread. Not only that but they are written in C which is a much low language and more powerful on the server side. So if you have 200 users to the server, they'll all be served at the same time. Now what you are thinking on the request side where you squeeze a bit more performance on a single request, which you can just add some frontend JS to make another call to the PHP webserver and make use of the async frontend powers of JS.

    • @timstrawbridge
      @timstrawbridge 4 месяца назад

      @@lionelthetechlead8839 Sorry about the confusion on the JS / server side portion. I meant let the server do the heavy lifting - as in PHP. I’m definitely not letting JS do any heavy lifting. It has enough to do in regards to rendering views. Regardless, your video is spot on about PHP not being dead. It’s not and hopefully not ever be.

    Doing the same thing in javascript takes 5-6 more time than doing it in PHP. If you need results without small talking go for PHP.

    • @lionelthetechlead8839
      @lionelthetechlead8839  4 месяца назад

      Yes, that's because you need to manage the async. Everything you need to do, you need to state while...then... wait so there's a lot of callbacks. And you get some weird results in real time. like imagine an operation where you call 1+1 x 2. You can get 3 or 4 depending which process goes first and it's really hard to debug
