Hi there i found devdojo through saas adventure course.

For me TALL was not a stack i encountered before. Many stacks seem to be based on nodejs or python. Newer ones also based on elixir and phoenix (PETAL) seem to be getting popular.

Anyhow just wanted to comment that seems like an interesting stack. Appreciate someone putting together a course on how an old language can be a good fit for modern use cases like saas and walking beginners like me through the process.

Hi there,

Actually, I believe that PHP is newer than Python and the same 'age' as JavaScript. But PHP is one of the most used backend languages for web development.

Especially with frameworks like Laravel which is the most popular backend framework out there:

Here is a nice post on why PHP has some bad reputation:

So in my personal opinion, PHP is still worth using and learning.

Bobby
