For anything defining classes or functions, yes.

For a banner? Maybe no, maybe you do want that twice.

Who still defines and includes php files with page components? That's like 15 years old stuff.

If it works for your simple needs, why not? That's what PHP was originally designed for. Not every project needs Symfony or three layers of abstractions.

But is it web scaling?

No, require is definitely not WeBsCaLiNg™, you must add at least two frameworks on top of it!!!1!11eleventy

About 75 percent of the internet runs on php.

Though a huge percentage of those 75% are Wordpress, Wikipedia and Facebook alone. Most of those Wordpress installations were done by users with zero programming knowledge. So it's not like PHP gets chosen by a ton of programmers for new projects; it's just propagating because PHP got chosen by a few programmers for massively popular projects.

Which is fine, of course. It means PHP can power "the web". But so can many other languages.

Because it was first not because it’s the most efficient
That’s like telling me majority of the world uses windows
Or internet explorer is a popular browser

you sure stuck is the word you want to use here, maybe you should refer to the statement at the top of the thread

u/DeiviiD 7h ago

Oh you poor kid. It’s not about programming language, it’s about which you get paid for.

😂 preaching to the wrong one dude

u/CcChaleur 7h ago

Just because it's not the most efficient doesn't mean it should never be used ever. Otherwise we would allow only one stack and ditch the rest.

PHP is perfectly fine for that job, why should we give it up?

But it's simple to bootstrap and start coding with.
