PHP vs JavaScript:
An In-Depth
Comparison of the
Two Scripting Languages
PHP VS JAVASCRIPT
JavaScript is a dynamic programming language that
creates dynamic HTML interactions. JavaScript (JS) is
a lightweight language with first-class functions. PHP is
Microsoft's ASP alternative. PHP is server-side
programming language. PHP design lets web
developers generate dynamic web pages. Both PHP and
JavaScript are well-known for creating websites. A deep
insightful comparison between the two makes your
decision simpler. So, without further ado, you will
explore PHP vs. JavaScript in detail.
Usage of PHP vs JavaScript for Web Development
PHP was originally termed "Personal Home Page" PHP borrows
syntax from C, Java, and Perl. PHP contains unique features and
functions. The language allows Web developers to easily
construct dynamic pages. PHP can create database-driven
websites.
A report from W3tech.com shows the percentage of websites built with PHP vs JavaScript technologies
PHP
Brenden Eich created Javascript. JavaScript (JS) is a lightweight
language with first-class functions. Since its introduction, it has
not only superseded previous languages and technologies to
become the standard for browser-based programming, but it has
also become a popular server-side language.
JavaScript
executes on the server, and the major
functionality of PHP is to produce the
HTML code, which will be read by the
browser
code is available only after the
server interprets it
can handle only local tasks that are
specific
code can be viewed even after the
output is interpreted
PHP vs JavaScript Comparison Table
Execution
The Code Availability
can be combined only with HTML
commonly uses MY SQL as a
database
can be combined with HTML, XML, and
Ajax
MY SQL is not probably used by
JavaScript.
PHP vs JavaScript Comparison Table
External Code Plug-in
Database
<?php // PHP single line comment 1
# PHP single line comment 2
/* PHP multi-line comment */
echo "<p>Hello!</p>";
?>
// JavaScript single line comment
/* JavaScript
multi-line comment */
alert(“Invalid user name.");
PHP vs JavaScript Comparison Table
Comments
CMS’s like Word Press, Drupal, or
Joomla etc.
Servers like MySQL, SQL, MariaDB,
Oracle, Sybase, and Postgresql etc.
Solution Stacks like a LAMP (Linux,
Apache, MySQL, PHP)
Front-end technologies like jQuery,
AngularJS, Backbone.js, Ember.js,
ReactJS etc.
Server-side technologies like Node.js,
MongoDB, Express.js, etc.
PHP vs JavaScript Comparison Table
Instances
PHP and JavaScript Similarities
Interpretation
Omnipresent
PHP and JavaScript are scripting instances where both PHP vs
JavaScript are interpreted, and the executions of their scripts can be
carried out in there in own runtime environments.
Most websites use PHP and JavaScript. They were mostly JavaScript on
the front end and PHP on the back end. PHP vs. JavaScript have a large
codebase of libraries, frameworks, and community support. Someone
has probably previously solved your concept or question.
Conclusion
The language opted depends on the project
scenarios and client options, but on the discussion
between PHP vs JavaScript, PHP can be stated an
upper hand due to its open-source availability.
