I reviewed these sort of web frameworks some time ago and went with ASP.NET Core because of the language attached being more to my liking and industrial-strength than Python, PHP or Ruby. I go in assuming every project will be 500KLOC someday, because it can happen. I've seen codebases this large in Python, and it was no bueno. Static typing, forward migration / backwards compatibility take top priority for me.
Laravel was my 2nd choice, the recent adoption of a JIT into the core really adds some desirability to the space. Not to mention HHVM and how much Wordpress is out there.

- mosen 8y agoWould you mind expanding on this?
- BuckRogers 8y agoPeople with that mentality aren't rational. If MS offers the best product, which they do for an awful lot of tech, especially once you start valuing integration & support, you should use it. It's actually pretty tough to beat, even if there's guys like that who don't believe in using "best of breed". Using "what you know" is usually best from a developer standpoint, but Microsoft has many best-of-breed products, much to his dismay.
- nicoburns 8y agoIndeed. And PHP has surprsingly good support for typing these days! I've been giving C#/Asp.Net Core ago since it's been open sourced. I'm loving C# the langauge, but I wish the ecosystem was as rich as the PHP/JS ecosystems.
