Improve this question

A friend called Pablo told me to learn WordPress CMS but another friend called Lucas told me to learn Strapi CMS because server side rendering and PHP in general are dying in favor of frontend side rendering with tools like react, angular or vue.

I do not want your opinion because opinions are strictly forbidden on this platform and they will make moderators close this question.

I want facts and solid arguments based on true evidence that demonstrate wether WordPress and server side rendering via PHP are really being replaced by the new javascript toys or not in the following 30 years (to be practical, because I will stop working on 2050 if I am still alive).

I really like PHP and cannot imagine a world without it.

But if you know better than me the objective factual non-opinionated tendency of web development and can help me take the smartest decision, I will be very happy today.

• Well if Lucas says so... – Jacob Peattie Commented Jun 1, 2021 at 7:43
• 2 Don't know why the names of your friends were relevant, but ok. You don't want opinions but you ask an opinion based question, we are not oracles, we can see the future to tell you exactly what would happen with PHP, react etc... . For now wordpress is still going strong, check for your self, and react/angular are also doing great. You want solid arguments... this is a QA site not a debate form. – Buttered_Toast Commented Jun 1, 2021 at 7:44
• @Jacob Peattie At least he says something. – Javier Guil Bozal Commented Jun 1, 2021 at 7:46
• You can't get anything but an opinion, because nobody knows the future. In any case, you need some code to store data on the server. Frontend code alone can't do that. – fuxia ♦ Commented Jun 1, 2021 at 7:57
• 1 I do not believe it is possible to answer this question using facts without waiting 30 years to see what happens, clairvoyance is required to answer this question, and it's unclear what an answer would look like without it being speculative. This is a discussion subject not a question, any response would be an opinion. Remember, this is not a forum – Tom J Nowell ♦ Commented Jun 1, 2021 at 8:21

Do not worry about the future of PHP, it's here to stay. It powers more than 75% of websites as of 2021. The frontend rendering frameworks and libraries keep changing and most of them end up being passing fads, although it will be vital to learn those that are being used extensively e.g. React, Vue, Angular etc.

Here's a link from Zend that delves deeper into the future of PHP.
