Should I do My WebApps In PHP?
Posted: Thu May 27, 2010 4:06 am
I'm floundering around trying to find my way through a plethora of languages: Perl, Python,PHP, html, asp, C#, CSS and whatever....
And all I want to do is find a way to write simple little web apps quickly with a minimum of fuss.
So I took to Visual Studio and thought I'd write in C# as it seemed all the go.... Visual IDE, powerful popular language, etc., etc...
But then I ran into hassles publishing the app to my website. Asp compatibilities. Then web.config file problems. And then I ran into hassles locating labels and stuff on the page and was directed to learn CSS for that.
And I suddenly thought of something very simple I wrote years ago - a 'feedback page' - in PHP and how easy that was and I suddenly thought - 'Maybe this is all crap. Maybe all I need is PHP'
So I've come here to ask. Is PHP all you really need?
