It has no compile time, the development cycle is crazy fast, the stdlib is good for the web, every problem is solved so they’re all googleable, it has a good package manager now, great frameworks, good testing stuff, there’s a lot of positives atm
- mekster 6y agoConcurrency is one thing not good for PHP. If a background task needs a lot of parallel work, I'd use node in that part.
- chucky_z 6y agoI agree with you. As a counterpoint though, I worked somewhere that generated some of the heaviest and biggest reports of anywhere I’ve ever seen with a lot of concurrency and PHP handled the task fine. Node would have still been a better fit though :)
