Honest question to the downvoters: All the libraries available at the time I was coding required a day or two of getting lost in documentation before I could use them. Has this changed in the past couple of years?
- zalew 15y agoI'm not a downvoter, but as a Django dev who was forced to grab a quick project in PHP after almost 3yrs not touching it - no, it hasn't changed much. Doc comments and discussion boards are still filled with one gazillion solutions to every simple task, of which most is crap (even when it comes to fresh frameworks). Language features aside, what makes me stay away from PHP is the low quality of it's ecosystem (no offence to the good guys who put quality code out there), especially when you get used to the level of Python solutions and community engagement.
