Who cares? Honestly? I'm shocked and appalled that the measure of ease of a web development language is the trivialness of a Hello World. This willy-nilly nature of PHP leads to the disaster that it is today. The language and API are, at every turn, willy nilly. The projects that use them are constantly rewriting and refactoring to follow a new or better pattern or organization.
I haven't touched python in too many months to write it here, but it's not much harder than importing an http package, creating a two line handler and listening for connections. Now you have a much more realistic and robust system and your potential for applications is already hugely increased. (Write a websocket server in php, go on).
Here, I can write "Hello World" in an even easier language!
`cat "Hello World" > index.html`

- drivebyacct2 14y agoMy point is that "ease" of "Hello World" does not translate to "ease" of developing [anything 'real'].
- Killswitch 14y agoMy point is this whole thread, the article linked, my reply, your reply. Who cares?
