I Built the Same App in ALL Versions of PHP (1995-2025)

[@CodingWithLewis]

Hate to break it to everyone. I actually am 60 years old and do heavy editing to make myself look young.

[@Cyber_Gas]

I knew you were old but i thought you are 90 year old with makeup

[@b857]

i always knew you were ai

[@Someone-uq9gi]

Great video🔥🔥🔥 I would love to see the same video idea but for other languages like JavaScript, Python etc

[@SageHill2625]

I knew it, Take care of your health OLD MAN 👴🏽

[@theperson624]

Could this be the reason why your videos come a bit late 🤔 hmm

[@tropicalbottle]

I was a little disappointed to see that the video wasn't really about 'making the same project in every version of PHP' as the title mention (in French anyway), but I really enjoyed the little history of PHP as if we lived it at the same time as you in ten minutes !

[@CodingWithLewis]

Apologies! The apps I made in each section were real apps and I tried to implement each of the new features into it as I explained what they did. Perhaps a more in depth video on my second channel would be better :)

[@gibaogibaogibao]

I liked this style of video. Keep up the good work!

[@gibaogibaogibao]

Also php stands for Please Help PHP

[@CodingWithLewis]

Cheers!

4:06 - "It doesn't release for another 6 years... But they decided to sponsor this long video im making" 😅😂

[@CodingWithLewis]

Honestly goated

[@AZisk]

Nice 1995 recreation. is that a CRT?

[@jagdishsharma2436]

It's currently 6 am and I pulled an all nighter was about to go to sleep but then saw this video and had to watch it because if i were to ignore it the algorithm might think its a bad video but i think its perfect.

[@aidrecabrera7]

Do this for all programming language :) I love how this lets me see the things I missed out on and could've experience back then when I was much, much younger. Why does this video make me nostalgic for some weird reason?

[@cody_codes_youtube]

This was a GREAT video Lewis! I did not know much about PHP and this was a great intro and summary, and entertaining! Thanks for sharing dude! Good work

[@CodingWithLewis]

Cheers Cody!

[@josh.manders]

Wow, as someone who learned and started writing PHP back in 2001, you took me down memory lane. This was a well made video. Here's my subscribe.

[@cb73]

Great job man… I’ve been programming in PHP since version 3. You really captured what it felt like back then. Too funny!

[@tfozo]

i have a nostalgia with php and i still love it...its cool and ur video is top notch

[@cajogos]

Been waiting a long time for this video to drop

[@joshcirre]

This is absolutely fantastic. I loved learning about this tiny language. Thank you for helping out the small, unknown, languages like this!

[@CodingWithLewis]

Hopefully you make some videos in the future about this little language someday!

[@jordixboy]

its not tiny wtf

[@ianmcbride1867]

​@@jordixboy woosh

[@TehKisuka]

people who hate on php haven't developed anything with php since ver 4.

[@50secs]

Wasn't expecting 90's vibe with it. Huge like!

[@Jay-Z-y6y]

My guy Lewis never fails to provide, respect to him. I'm leaving this to anyone scrolling through the comments section to sub to him

[@ameenbadri9696]

video's like this are why i love youtube. Thank you Storm who sponsored this video.

[@ayoubMazouz]

Great idea, this is a new fun format.

[@alexde]

Classes were introduced in PHP 4, not 3. And full on OOP was introduced in PHP 5.

[@mstandish]

A single tear drops down my cheek for Perl. 2:02

[@CodingWithLewis]

RIP soldier

[@SamMeechWard]

It took 10 years, but I see that that moustache finally starting to coming through

[@hammadXP]

Love the content, editing and you matching the theme, please do similar for other languages as well ❤

[@CodingWithLewis]

What other language should I do? 🤔

[@hammadXP]

@@CodingWithLewis another controversial language 😅, javascript came to my mind

[@solveit1304]

I'm PHP developer since 2016. PHP5 hate is justified, Wordpress made that and you're right 100%. That's interview breaker for me. We upgrade huge production code base from ~10 years from PHP 5 to PHP 8 just month ago and it take full year. Using JIT only we go from 14 servers ~20% CPU to 6 servers ~5%. Response times goes sometimes from 500ms to 50ms. Crazy! Typing is huge deal, all new features are nice and make less boilerplate.

[@vojtakoubek5957]

Hi Lewis! I now work as a junior PHP developer. In work we use Nette framework, but I used Laravel with Inertia and Vue and loved it. Do you think that PHP is a future? Should I learn more of it or should I switch to something else in the future? Thanks! Greetings from Czechia

[@som5698743]

In my personal opinion, PHP is not going anywhere, PHP excels at creating web applications using the HTTP protocol, I would recommend you to complement your skills with Python, Javascript/Typescript and C#/Java, and of course, continue learning PHP! This language has helped me to build my last 2 startups and the performance and DX is amazing! I use the other languages I mentioned too heavily (microservices, specific features like live chat using websockets)

[@vojtakoubek5957]

@som5698743 thanks for your opinion! I was thinking about Golang too

[@som5698743]

​@@vojtakoubek5957Solid language too! If you learn PHP, Go, JS you can create basically anything hahahaha, just if you want to dive into ML from scratch, I'd recommend you to learn python at least

[@Applecitylightkiwi]

Highclass vid bro you dropped it thanks

[@nfinzer22]

I've been using PHP since 4 was recently released but 3 was still widely used.

[@natureless1]

Php stands for please help please

[@CodingWithLewis]

PLEASE

[@b857]

actually: Php Hates Programmers

[@Likeable_Emmec]

php stands for pMURDER hTHIS pLANGUAGE

[@kocokan]

We do not talk about PHP 6

[@moegreene3630]

Love the concept of comparing different versions of languages.

[@jefferyosei101]

I enjoyed this so so so much, thanks Lewis! 😅❤

[@ATADSP]

If I had a nickel for every time I worked on a PHP project that was stuck on an older version of PHP and couldn't be upgraded for one reason or another, I would have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but its weird that it happened twice.

[@CodingWithLewis]

more nickels than needed!

[@imqqmi]

Not too bad. I upgraded about 20 apps using php code sniffer/php compatibility. It wasn't too hard to do with xdebug. Even some extensions that were abandoned weren't that hard to upgrade.

[@MyOwnPufferFish]

My man did Symfony dirty, hell Laravel itself started out as mostly symfony parts with extra bells and whistles

[@henningerhenningstone691]

PHP 8 looks like Bash had a child with C#

[@HistoricaHungarica]

Wow! Lewis aged at least 70 years in 3 decades! Great job! ;)

[@HardbassTV.]

Why is 6.0 skipped

[@yezperdk]

We do not talk about PHP 6.0.

[@theandroidtech01]

I love your video 💖💖 and your style ✨..

[@JLarky]

PHP 3 was real PHP

[@JerryCrow]

is ruby good? objectively? Wasm is good. GL with that :D

[@Luis-oi5lb]

Pretty good video, but something i miss is that you only showcase laravel instead of showing well integrated alternatives e.g. symfony which is used in Shopware, Pimcore, Spryker, magneto and many more

[@juanmacias5922]

Your comparison to C and PHP broke my mind, HOW? lol if anything PHP looks like bash script.

[@PythonProgrammmer]

0:52 - "So it's a couple of years later..." 😅😂

[@b857]

MY EYESSSSS

[@SimoneRicco-ko7or]

Finally some justice for my friend PHP, everyone mistreats him 😞

[@LuanDavi]

omg I had so much fun hearing the translation to Portuguese in this video 😂

[@allesarfint]

I somehow don't think enterprise Java was a thing in 1995, the year it released.

[@musyafanm7535]

Wah keren broo

[@huk3028]

Now try to make the same app in C++ :)

[@WuppertalerWanderWade]

Is the german translation of the video description on purpose?

[@akmalraj121]

Did I just watch a movie?

[@jmon24ify]

TIL that PhpStorm is as old as Php

[@abishektamilan9733]

If php has without reloading functionality all js frameworks will die

[@skruyo]

I may be a little uneducated but what is a good uh vps hosting

[@joce5992]

Where is a good place to learn php and laravel ?

[@arieleibblashnikov]

0:39 Shane Gillis look alike

[@CodingWithLewis]

I get that often lmfao

[@Kaldor-Draigo-h6q]

bro fell off 💀

[@CodingWithLewis]

1minute and only 60 views.... bro fell off

[@deathdefier45]

He walked so we could run away from php

[@linaori]

Shame you highlight Laravel and Eloquent, it's horrendous to work with. Would've been more interesting to highlight Symfony.

[@phonlawutchansri7083]

Will php die with Taylor?

[@xerxes_on]

👍👍

[@Jimkyr4549]

Hey did you do me on discord I might have a scam

[@jj18]

Why

[@shu9460]

damn you old as hell

30 years in the making 😅

[@CodingWithLewis]

Took a while to make!

Not first

[@CodingWithLewis]

It's the thought that counts

[@gambaproexpert4634]

PHP 7 = 7 pesos filipinos

[@nabinsaud4688]

Why people use react , node, go? Why they don't use Laravel its so easy -60 yrs dev 😆

[@eptic-c]

I don't get the react part as laravel is a backend framework and for the frontend you can use react anyway. But, compare to go, it is faster to develop in Laravel, easier to set-up, safer to upgrade from version of the framework or the php version, composer is a lot of time better and faster then npm. I say this as a 25 year old dev that chose Laravel after trying go / node / c#. When you have real problems to solve that could make you money in 2 days not 1 month, you would chose Laravel too.
