Serious question: what's the use case for using PHP in greenfield projects? Is the client dictating the use of PHP or your own choice?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I use PHP as a back end language for an API. The front end is Vue. It’s fast as fuck, runs anywhere, doesn’t need tons of dependencies, and just does what I want it to.

The environment is all on-premise, so that does limit our options… but I’d still pick PHP.
