		wejick on Aug 13, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Go is my hammer, and everything is a nail I recently tried to setup a PHP / Laravel dev environment on Suse Linux box. Installed PHP and all the stuff accordingly, then following one of the get started doc from Laravel. You know what happened? Doesn't work, broken. I assume that way Laravel created Sail, which I didn't use. Much different case with Go, installing the toolkit and development environment is easy. Even with free vscode, everything is just work, PHP+Laravel seems encourage you to buy all dev things.

At the same time using purely php is about as convenient as it gets. Just rsync, ftp or scp your index.php to the server and deployment is done.

PHP+Laravel is more akin to ruby on rails or python django. Pure PHP is similar to Go in terms of the deployment scenario
