I still use PHP in like 1/8 client projects - it’s fast as shit now ^^ lolol

I’ve been a PHP developer for 20 years. I concur.

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?

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.
