I think it's hard to fine good PHP developers.
I also think it's damned near impossible to find React developers who are capable of doing anything that isn't React flavored.
For those reasons alone, I'd choose PHP over React, especially if I want to scale.
- cutler 5y agoLaravel is well-integrated with Vue.js as an option so you might want to look into that.
- MisterBastahrd 5y agoOh, I know, I'm just poking at the "I know this thing so everything that we deal with must have a solution derived from this thing" crowd. The SAAS company I work for is about to start migrating away from the monolithic framework we have to a tiered services architecture, and we'll be using laravel because it meets our needs.
- vosper 5y agoIf the argument is that clients don't care (the comment I was replying to) then why would it matter to them that their develoeprs struggle with things that aren't React-flavored? Especially in 2021, when you can build just about anything on the web and stay within the React ecosystem.
- MisterBastahrd 5y agoBecause real businesses that generate real revenue through software processes usually require more than tinker-toy websites built on a teetering pyramid of dependencies.
- tlackemann 5y agoCouldn't agree more. The people who are against using PHP are those who never used it and think they are being clever and ahead-of-the-curve by bashing it.
- vosper 5y agoWho said they were against PHP? I'm just said there are probably more React developers around these days than PHP ones, thus it's probably easier to hire from that pool.
