Semantics now, but Ruby on Rails is also a framework. Ruby is the programming language.

PHP interest is on the decline, but it still powers a massive percentage of the internet.

There's nothing wrong with using PHP and there's also nothing wrong with using Ruby.

If there's anything I would say to avoid PHP for, it is data oriented systems.

Many other languages have better data management features, optimizations, etc.

I'm enjoying this conversation, I just think you're misinformed about PHP.

I'm no crusader for the language, but for what we're talking about there are no downsides.
