In the current programming landscape, PHP may not be the most popular or even feasible development language for tech products and services. It is at the receiving end of backlash from frustrated programmers and developers who cite the limitations of its frameworks for its lack of suitability for development.

However, PHP  powers 79.2% of all websites we know today. Given that WordPress powers over 34% of all websites, and uses PHP, the server-side programming language shall continue to maintain its relevance in the years to come.

In addition to this, PHP has shown tremendous improvements in its recent releases and is inching closer to upgrading its compatibility through frameworks to enhance the software development process.

PHP is simple, platform-independent, and enjoys the support of a large community of developers. With nearly  737k repositories, it is one of the most popular server-side scripting languages on GitHub. PHP is known to be a cost-effective, stable and flexible solution for developing web pages. Some of its most used frameworks include Laravel, CakePHP, Symfony, and Phalcon.
