PHP is the easiest to deploy, for sure - just buy a classic webhosting for $2/month.
But I'd not optimize on deployment ease. I'd go with Node.js, TypeScript (or your preferred stack) and Dockerize it for development ease.
- jjice 5y agoWhile I don't mind PHP, and I write it every day, but I have to disagree to a certain extent. I agree that rsync is an easy deployment, but (in my experience at least), PHP depends on configuration files and library bindings that can become a real pain and require management of the entire server, where as a lot of common languages define these in code now. I know we can set ini settings in code, and I prefer it that way, but having to consider the different apache configs and ini settings everywhere is a pain for me. All that said, there's a really good chance that these are dated problems that I just happen to experience because of the codebase I work in.
