I Like PHP

My condolences.
Ew.
I really like PHP
I enjoy anything that is not javascript
>>54491976
good for you
Modern PHP is pretty good. Comparable to Java or C#.
unlike the abortion that is serverside JavaScript. NPM is horrid and needs to die
>>54491976
So do thousands of other companies and individuals.
What's your point?
>>54492069
I set it as my new wallpaper
>>54491976
laravel and symphony MPGA (made php great again)
Programming in PHP feels disgusting.

I didn't even know this existed
(Yes, I'm from the other side of the moon)
> serverside
> Javascript
WHAT THE FUCK?
Isn't JS supposed to run in the clients browser?
JS is only for nice-to-have gimicks on websites, nothing more!

It's a prototype-oriented language that supports functions as objects and doesn't need keywords to create closures. That alone makes it better than fucking PHP. Also there is only one place to configure error-printing and stuff: the source. No php.ini madness. Javascript isn't the best language ever, even if it's been seriously improving, but it's more comfy than PHP.

It makes it decent, but doesn't removes the fact that the main language is shit

At first I thought the Server was written in JS (like nginx is written in C ..).
But you could still use fcgi-wrapper for running any program, written in any language?
So:
Client -> Server -> Fcgi-wrapper -> Application written in (C, bash, JS, ... whateveryoulike)

It frequently is. Node.js's asynchronous nature makes it really good at handling network requests. A simple node server is frequently more scalable than apache at serving resources, and on par with nginx.
>>54494342
so could one run a http web server inside a browser?
(I know the firewall doesn't magically open, but for local use?)

Node is google's V8 javascript interpreter + C extensions + javascript libraries. Then you use those libraries to create a simple server, like in any other language that isn't PHP (though there is a server for dev purposes bundled in nowadays). If you aren't stupid you then put a web server acting as a proxy in front of it, so you can fine-tune the public-facing server better and have several different applications running behind it. Also this >>54494342, although asynchronous programming in javascript is still heavily callback-based and node's event model rather primitive (loop over callbacks and fire them).

>fcgi-wrapper
It's fcgiwrap senpai.
