If you already know a little Javascript, go straight to Node. Else, you can now choose between Node and Php. I would suggest PHP though, but the language is just discriminated for no good reason. if you can handle the discrimination, go with PHP Else, Node 1 Like |

If you love money learn PHP, if you hate money learn node. PHP powers 83 percent of the internet. WordPress, Drupal, Magento and co which powers the most websites on the internet are all powered by PHP. Jobs yapa for those fields. I am not talking about 20k WordPress theme installers. Building out theme features, editing and adding custom code to themes. Building out plugins and all of that. Learn PHP first especially if you want to earn. Node can come in later when the money is flowing. Nodejs powers just 0.9 percent of the internet. Even a language like scala has more coverage than Nodejs. Scala powers 1.9 percent of the internet. 5 Likes 1 Share |

squash47: Bro I followed the hype with nodejs especially from that HNG internship that everyone insisted on nodejs. Omho I would check freelancing sites and I would be seeing like 600 nodejs jobs and like 12000 PHP jobs. Like 12000 WordPress jobs. Like 12000 Drupal and co and all of them jobs. And it's not jobs of installing themes O. Advanced jobs like editing plugins to produce specific functionality building out new features and all of that. Omho I got frustrated and dropped nodejs for PHP. I felt since node is JavaScript I can pick up nodejs anytime I need it without much hassle. 2 Likes |

tensazangetsu20 is kinda right. Every programmer needs money of course. I personally don't like PHP and so I learnt node js very well. But I wish I learnt PHP. PHP is an old an outdated multithreaded language but still powers a lot of websites in the internet. PHP has more jobs so go for it 3 Likes |

tensazangetsu20:Thanks bro. But it's no necessary I study computer science or engineering to do this right? |
Re: Should I Learn Php Or Node Js ? I'm Confused. by tensazangetsu20(m): 10:05am On Sep 24, 2020 |
Heartlessbanker:Not necessarily but I have no idea on how interviews are done in those fields. I know data science interviews still test for data structures and algorithms so you might have to learn that even if you didn't study computer science or engineering. I have no idea about the rest. For DevOps you need to acquire certifications to get a job. Look at AWS certifications. I think the associate certification should be enough to get one an entry level job at least. 1 Like |
