PHP in 2023 : Should You Learn it? | PHP Programming Pros & Cons | Programming Language | #shorts

PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is one of the most widely used programming languages for web development. But, is it still relevant today, and should you learn it? Let's see what out experts have to say.

What is PHP?
PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open-source scripting language designed specifically for web development. It seamlessly integrates with HTML and is capable of generating dynamic web content, handling form data, interacting with databases, and managing sessions and cookies. With a large and active community, PHP offers extensive libraries and frameworks, making it flexible and adaptable for building robust and interactive websites and web applications. Its cross-platform compatibility and continuous evolution have solidified its position as a popular choice for developers seeking a powerful and efficient language for server-side scripting.

What are programming languages?
Programming languages are formal languages used to instruct computers to perform specific tasks. They are a set of rules, symbols, and instructions used to write computer programs. Popular programming languages include Java, Python, C++, JavaScript, and Ruby, each with its own syntax, features, and applications.

What is Software Engineering?
Software engineering is a branch of computer science that focuses on the design and development of computer systems and application software.
Software engineers are experts in programming languages, software development, and operating systems and use engineering principles to create software.

What are programming skills?
Programming skills refer to the ability to write code and develop software using a programming language. These skills involve understanding how to design, write, test, debug, and maintain software programs and applications. Programming skills are essential for careers in software development and are in high demand in many industries.

What is computer science?
Computer science is the study of computers and computational systems. It encompasses the design, development, and analysis of algorithms, programming languages, software, and hardware. Computer scientists solve complex problems, create new technologies, and drive innovation in fields such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and robotics.

Future of programming
Programming is a job that requires abstract thinking, logical thinking, and attention to detail. You want to retrain yourself on skills that align with your interests and passions. In the age of emerging technology: artificial intelligence, big data, virtual reality, and robotics, there are plenty of jobs that will require technical understanding but at the same time involve more human skills. These jobs won’t be replaced by technology any time soon. Coding won’t just be relevant in the coming ten years, it will be more relevant than it is now.

Who is a programmer?
Programmers write, test, and maintain programmes using programming languages. Additionally, a programmer’s duties include identifying bugs, correcting errors, and debugging problems. These individuals need to be detail-oriented, have a creative mindset, and be proficient in a number of programming languages.

Yet, PHP powers 80% of all websites on the internet. Say or Do all you want PHP pays my bills

[dharanibala]

Most people don't know the power of PHP

[GoutamReddydazz]

PHP is still beast in fast development

[starlines]

There are no bad languages only bad programmers 😊

PHP is a great Backend scripting language. By working in PHP, i got real taste of backend development.

[gamershubhya]

php is good bcz in 2023 i apply lots of company's and no one selected finally i got one opportunity in php mysql laravel so this is my start in it feild as a fresher i will learn lots of technology but always php has soft corner in my heart

[myherodemon]

Well most of start up companies use php angular they dont care about new frameworks 😂

[rage]

People really dont understand the power of PHP and still have the bad taste of PHP from back in the day. The language has grown a lot, and a lot of new JS libs and frameworks are looking back at PHP for inspiration.

There is no such thing that php is old. You can literally do anything from building serverless web apps, high-performance servers with multi-threading and coroutines, to now building native desktop apps with PHP.

The real value of a language is not just about what it offers. It is all on your ability to extract the most out of it for your use case.

I am still using php because too many modern frameworks gave me a headache, everytime I learn a new framework it gets outdated like nothing😢

This guy can laugh, but PHP developers are those who are driving the Lambos 🚗 ...

PHP Ecosystem keeps growing. Now we have NumPower.

NumPower library was created to provide the foundation for efficient scientific computing in PHP, as well as leverage the machine learning tools and libraries that already exist and can benefit from it.

This C extension developed for PHP can be used to considerably speed up mathematical operations on large datasets and facilitate the manipulation, creation and operation of N-dimensional tensors. The area of ​​image processing and computer vision will also be able to benefit from this library.

Some features of NumPower are:

* GPU and CPU compute support

* Dozens of different operations for manipulation, arithmetic, linear algebra, statistics and etc.

* Single precision float points (float32) for improved memory usage

* Custom CUDA kernels for almost all operations

* AVX2 support when available on hardware

* Support for GD images in RGB format for easy image manipulation.

PHP is used by 76.8% of all the websites whose server-side programming language we know

[techqast]

PHP has its Place.. I can say a programmer who say a language is bad, doesn't really know it uses cases in depth..

[AmitDutta-dnmy]

If you are from India and searching for a web developer job as a fresher then php will save you 👍
