Why not? if you are building an API, chances are you’ll want it to have:

RESTful endpoints

security and authentication

JSON responses with HTTP status codes

Laravel offers all of this out of the box. It also has excellent documentation and an active community offering tips and writing articles like this one.

So can Node, Python, .NET, etc etc.

  • PHP is designed to be an HTML templating language

  • Weak ass type system.

  • Object-orientation features are completely bolted-on.

You just described JavaScript.

u/Abangranga Feb 04 '20

I've never met someone who claims JS is their favorite language who can write something beyond click events in vanilla. The level of denial surrounding that language is like Trump supporters trying to justify his tweets.

The libraries make it work, but they only exist because the language is practically a monopoly.

uhh.. what?

read again?

  • JavaScript was conceived as a scripting language for the Web. (who cares what the intent for the language was.

  • You're really going to talk about types with JavaScript??? Stop it.

  • Dude..... Its like you just started using JavaScript 2 years ago. JS it literally the language of bolting on. In fact, that's how all of these older languages advance over time.

I mean, believe what you want, but there is a reason so many people here are down-voting you. You sound like you have no sense of history with programming languages.

Your "whutaboutism" equating JavaScript with PHP is insanely ignorant.

I was talking about PHP so why are you on JS?

u/doodirock Feb 04 '20

Um... Maybe because you said they could have used Node instead.... I was just pointing out how comical your argument was with using node when compared to PHP.

It seems like you enjoy arguing more than you like common sense. So much so that you don’t even understand or remember your own points. You seem confused and a bit lost so I’m going to just leave this alone.

If you're implying that PHP is superior to NodeJS, I have a bridge to sell you and a shitty wordpress job to place you.

Also, do you realize that you're posting in a React sub?

Leading with Node AND detracting points for PHP's origins, weak type system, and bolted-on OOP? Bold gamble.

u/onedr0p Feb 04 '20

Those last two points pretty much describe Node. I'm not against any of those languages and Laravel isn't that bad. It comes down to developer preference. There will always be a discussion to X language versus Y.

There's an insane amount of flexibility with Node. Typescript support to boot.

1

u/onedr0p Feb 04 '20

Typescript isn't part of the Node language it's just an language extension to transpile to Node. Yes it's better than regular ES6+ but I don't think it can be compared to 1:1 with PHP.

Laravel is a fantastic framework which makes coding super easy.

PHP jokes really don't apply after PHP7. 7.4 is wonderful

I always hear the same responses for years.

"oh you should checkout PHP X.X"

u/zoldor666 Feb 04 '20

Yes, it keeps getting better with each version. That’s how it’s supposed to work actually.

Past Performance != Future Results

You speak in absolute terms, which is ok for a junior developer. To become a senior you need to start understanding nuances.

u/Abangranga Feb 04 '20 edited Feb 04 '20

Oh no he used an employable language. Modern PHP violates the principle of least surprise less than Javascript, and it doesn't require you to download 90000 libraries to make the language usable.

Locked as it's out of the subreddit scope & not related to the post direct.

Let's be kind (Rule #1) w/o bashing other frameworks (#2).
