  1. POWhat System would you consider a PHP Killer?
    text
    copied!<p>(System = programming language, framework, etc.)</p> <p>PHP has some serious benefits, which are ignored by other programming languages and their frameworks.</p> <p>One of them is easy deployment. It feels dirty to just put a file into a directory, which matches the URL. But it's incredible easy and straightforward. No matter what you think of the language itself.</p> <p>On Apache you have mod_php and FastCGI. On all other web servers you can use FastCGI and it behaves just like plain old mod_php. File in Directory and keep going.</p> <p>No restarts if you change something in the code. Just reload the page.</p> <p>I used many languages, including the 4 big scripters Perl, Ruby, PHP, Python. Whenever I have the choice, I use Python.</p> <p>But this choice was easy. What to do if I want to use Python for web development?</p> <ol> <li><a href="http://httpd.apache.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Apache</a> + <a href="http://www.modpython.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">mod_python</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Server_Gateway_Interface" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WSGI</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CGI</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fastcgi.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">FastCGI</a></li> <li>Python webserver</li> <li>Python webserver behind Proxy</li> <li><a href="http://python.ca/scgi/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SCGI</a></li> <li>just give up</li> </ol> <p>Similar with any other language.</p> <p>Is there anything available at the moment or in development, that could be a future PHP killer? Something with the benefits of easy deployment, but with a better language?</p>
