With the introduction of PHP frameworks and widespread use of MVC pattern in web development, has anyone ever wondered why we aren't simply writing our web applications in C++, and using 'templates' files for view delivery?
It seems like a pretty interesting cycle. Internet begins High level languages aren't easy enough for newbies to write websites Scripting languages (php,ruby,python) are created and take hold of web market Enterprise level applications require standardization of programming techniques Scripting languages get standardized with frameworks Frameworks are entirely oo, and MVC ensues Programmers wonder why they ever stopped writing in C/C++. I love what Symfony (and other frameworks) have done for PHP. I also love the flexibility and loosely typed nature of PHP, but sometimes I wonder.... how far away is a good PHP framework from C / Java? Imagine the performance gain of not having to deal with PHP. I guess this is kind of the vision of .net.
