I haven't used PHP in almost a decade, but I've been super impressed with what I've seen in the most recent few versions. Looks really cool, it's gotten me tempted to dust it off again at some point

The fact that the language is weirdly executed server side is a non starter imo. PHP is still the only language doing that no?

Edit: I'm talking about the php code being compiled / run by an external process which makes the whole thing staless.

It was a "working" design when people were dropping .php files in ftp folder on some hosting provider.

You're not making any sense with this sentence or explanation, why even comment if you're unaware of the execution model?

What "external" process are you talking about?

>>zmxz+gv
Why do you need mod_php, php-fpm, zend etc ... to create a PHP "server"?

This model is imo outdated, why can't we create a PHP server that just runs without the need of something external.
