PHP

PHP is a server‑side scripting language originally designed for web development and now widely used in content management systems such as WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal. It runs on most web servers (Apache, Nginx via PHP‑FPM) and is compatible with a variety of operating systems.

Its strengths include a mature ecosystem of libraries and frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, Yii), straightforward deployment, a low barrier to entry for developers, broad database support (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite), and the ability to run from the command line for scripts and automation tasks.

At Dev48 PHP is used to build the server side of web applications and mobile backends, to create REST and GraphQL APIs, to integrate with payment gateways and third‑party services, and to write scripts that support cloud functions and data processing pipelines, which can be part of solutions that incorporate AI components.
