PHP has powered a huge share of the web for many years — from small sites to highly scalable enterprise apps.
Thanks to modern frameworks like Laravel, PHP today is performant, secure and versatile.
Why PHP?
- Web‑native: Designed for the web, ideal for server‑side apps.
- Vast ecosystem: WordPress, Shopware 6 and Laravel all run on PHP.
- Stability & longevity: Many successful large projects run on PHP.
- Modern features: Typing, OOP, namespaces, attributes, excellent performance since PHP 8.x.
Typical use cases:
- APIs & microservices
- E‑commerce platforms
- SaaS products
- CMS and shop development
Services with PHP
- Custom backend development with or without Laravel.
- API design (REST & GraphQL) with clear versioning.
- Legacy refactoring: Modernise older PHP applications.
- Testing & CI/CD: PHPUnit, Pest, integration into pipelines.
Example projects
- Custom API for a headless shop system.
- Refactoring a legacy codebase from PHP 5 to PHP 8.
- Microservice architecture for data‑intensive apps.
Conclusion
PHP is a reliable backbone of modern web development.
