Surviving a dirty and grueling evolution, PHP today is the favorite scripting language of the web. People love it because it has everything you’re looking for in a programming language: flexibility and dynamics. The newer versions of PHP support everything you need in a smart and easy way.
Statistics show that about 82.5% of all websites on the internet use PHP. Some companies that are using PHP today include:
PHP has a bad reputation because of its low learning curve. There are a lot of developers that take advantage of its ease of use without considering good design practices. But with the latest advancements of PHP and the modern frameworks, we are safe to say that PHP is reclaiming its reputation and it’s stronger than ever. On the plus side, it has a fast load time and many hyper-growing open source projects, such as WordPress and Laravel.
PHP works with all major operating systems, including Linux, Windows, macOS, RISC OS, and others. It also has support for most of the web servers that we have today (Apache, IIS, etc.).
Maybe the strongest and most significant feature of PHP is that it supports a wide range of databases as for example MySql, MongoDB, etc.
PHP helps businesses create dynamic websites with plenty of functionalities. Whether it is customized E-commerce solutions or CRM applications, PHP can transform their online presence, dynamically.
Over 80% of the largest eCommerce, social media, and wiki sites use PHP as their engine. Facebook, Amazon, and Wikipedia started on PHP and still use the language extensively. Startup businesses, advertising agencies, and small software organizations are the most popular industries where PHP is widely used.
PHP is designed for building web applications. There’s no need for additional servers, processors, or tricks. On top of everything, new tools, frameworks, and libraries are being created every day to make the code easier to understand and more elegant.
Still not convinced that PHP is the right tech for scaling your project? Maybe the following facts can change your mind:
Developers today need to create complex websites and apps that can take too much time and hassle to build. They needed a more structured and natural way of development. PHP frameworks came into the picture as an adequate solution to developers’ nightmares.
There is a wide range of frameworks to choose from when working with PHP code. If you need something simpler you can use Lumen or Slim. If you need something that supports complicated applications, you have Laravel or Symfony.
“When I choose a framework, I am looking for something that is easy to work with, has a strong community, high-quality learning resources, features that would speed up the development process and the way the code is structured and written. Now that I’ve worked with Laravel for more than 3 years, I can’t imagine myself without it.” – Davor Minchorov, Senior Software Engineer at Adeva
One thing is for sure: PHP is one of the best programming languages for web development. Companies love it because of its cost-efficiency, speed, and consistent performance. Developers like using it because of its elegant syntax, the vast array of frameworks, and a large number of PHP guidelines available online.
