Swoole + PHP outperforms Node.JS quite a lot in my experience - A simple "Hello world" HTTP server with PHP + Swoole is almost an order of magnitude faster. Also PHP (when compiled with ZTS can offer true threading. And then of course the vast standard library that PHP has out of the box - especially when to the rather non-existant Javascript standard library, PHP shines again in my humble opinion....

PHP really pays my bills freelancing and I've never been happier.
Ofcourse I do know Node, Java and C# as well but still my heart belongs to PHP since it was the first programming language I started with.
Nothing against Node at all, I'm working on a Node application cause the client required and it's amazing but my main applications are built on PHP.

PHP has a far better Development Experience than most languages out there for a Web environment. Now, with a syntax closer to C# and TypeScript without most flaws from either language, there are large benefits in using PHP

Switched to Node in 2012 and never looked back.

Why does this video feel like a promotion of Laravel Octane lol, not that I'm complaining

My dev needs have always been more real than fancy, more use-case than fiction-case so PHP has always been a better fit

With PHP, you can build really advanced and scalable web applications, as long as you know how to do it....

php 8.4 outperforms nodejs in static and dynamic 😒😒

That's 4 minutes of my life that I'll never recover.

I use PHP because it's easy and forgiving. Javascript is a nightmare to code and you always have to add different packages depending on what you are designing.

Or better Golang ❤ Native Speed, Static Typing, Built-In Concurrency, Simple Syntax, Single Binary, Rich Library, Integrated Testing, Maintenance Ease

Is this not a waste of time? All that this wanted to say was all said at timestamp 4.06. The END!

There are a lot of money in php (Laravel)

[tommytjc]

All WEB development must consider reliability, security, maintainability, extensibility and lastly, performance - in this order.

Nothing more disgusting than a really fast WEB application that sacrifices any of the fore mentioned requirements.

I suggest we ask the PHP developers to consider building in the most desirable characteristics of node.js. Or add hooks to augment PHP with node.js - such as for event driven needs.

The reality is I, and likely other knowledgeable PHP developers, augment PHP with all kinds of stuff.
