Though please be aware, modern PHP is very heavily typed. Variables are not typed, but object properties, function parameters, and function returns have a very robust type system to support them. They're all technically optional, but nearly all professional code these days is fairly heavily typed. It's also impressively fast for a nominally interpreted language. (It's actually compiled to bytecode first, then that's cached and executed.) We also basically never mix HTML and PHP in one file anymore. 🙂

kinda jealous of you veteran programmers. modern PHP's capability for building super ultra complicated architecture makes it way harder to land an "entry level" job nowadays. but I'm still glad that I didn't choose Java which seems to be more decent, its popularity became a disaster in the coming internet ice age in my country, because the market of Java is already saturated

[@Nerwesta]

@@deidyomega Depends on what's your need, currently working on a project with vanilla JS and vanilla CSS ( PHP framework tho for the API ) Why ? Because it doesn't need to, I'll probably wire some React component to it later but that's it. My main frontend isn't React but just plain JS. My main grip is people are faster to milk on the latest technologies without thiking why and how it could be beneficial, so I guess YMMV, but there are still some interesting projects to make without any of these technologies imo. TL:DR , yeah you can still work on frontend without wiring a framework to it or make it SPA, think about custom small businesses websites

[@deidyomega]

@@Nerwesta I mean, you never *need* a spa, or any tools, and frankly, you dont even *need* javascript at all. You can do a whole lot with html+css. A fully animated site with form validation, drop down menus, mobile responsive, the works. But while you are fiddling with esotric css to make it happen, I'll have completed 3 more projects that are "bloated". The client will be happy, the users wont care, and I get paid on more projects in less time.

[@Nerwesta]

@@deidyomega For sure, but I'm still talking about a project that feels modern, and can tick a lot of boxes UX-wise. Like you said, without Javascript it's hard to have a convenient UX. Then again, I'll be quicker to drop a small snippet of vanilla JS to manage let's say popovers or modals than doing a whole React component. By dropping a snippet, I would probably make it a class based module for it and let's go. Instead, it really shines when you wire React on complicated dashboard to take care ( back office of a CMS for instance ). That's why I'm not very into Angular. lol

First started with CSS 2 and HTML 3, fell in love with Ruby on Rails 4 but found work with Laravel 5. My journey to fullstack never ceases to amaze me.

[@bonapart3572]

@Martin Shaw Golang and Rust near React, okay. Also, this is because you just search php related jobs, it's normal that you will find php vacancy. Your personal experience is not an argument

I'm a multilangual dev with about 10 years experience, coding in many languages on a daily basis (PHP, Python, C#, C++, Lua, *SQL, Java, JavaScript). And I absolutely love PHP. I have written my own framework in PHP, and I love its flexibility and freedom compared to other languages. Often the critic to why people say PHP is bad, is why I like it.

[@BboyKeny]

I think with the continuous expanding of the type system, PHP is becoming a good contender in the backend space.

[@philipmrch8326]

@@BboyKeny Still no reason to use it since you can pick literally anything else.

@@philipmrch8326 Many wordpress, magento and laravel websites out there. Sadly I don't really have the luxury to go Rust or Go for most of my clients. The fact that it has become somewhat bearable is very much appreciated.
