Yes, Python is good for backend. If you're a beginner and want to learn web development but not sure where to start, I suggest you start with JavaScript HTML, CSS, JavaScript 2 Likes 1 Share |

February30: You're sure you understand how backend and frontends communicate? Anyone who understands it won't type what you just typed. It's so basic. You need to thoroughly understand how front ends communicate with backend at a conceptual level. Once you understand that, you'll be able to write backends in most languages you can think of. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

I've been in the programming field for some time. So here is my submission: 1. Python is a great language and of course a multipurpose language. Where as PHP is basically created for web. DO YOU GET THE POINT... 2. Python is obviously faster than PHP however, PHP seems to have bridged that gap with their PHP 7 and above 3. PHP has a wider community than Python ( web in mind) 4. There are more PHP jobs - lemme not exaggerate, in Nigeria than python I can't say much about node.js cos I'm not a JS fan (sad). Personally, I should be moving to GOLANG soon 1 Like 1 Share |

I have been using Django framework for man than 5 years now, Django works perfectly for web, I mean perfectly. Django has a robust templating engine, awesome ORM and uses the MVT architecture which makes you write safe and secure code. You don't have to worry about writing complex queries, as the ORM does the heavy lifting for you. I have used both Laravel and Django and i can tell you Django ORM is a lot smoother and versatile than Laravel Eloquent. Django also have a powerful library that lets build restful api for your frontend applications like mobile apps. Because it has existed for a long time, alot of repetition has been abstracted away eg the class based view , Viewset on drf etc, so you write smaller and cleaner code for problem that tends to repeat itsef(which happens alot in programing) Learning python easily open you for other opportunities like data science, machine learning etc compared to PHP which is only used for the web. The only limitation of Django in the web is the support for websockets , but django channels is here to solve that anyways(Which i have used). All in all you cant go wrong by using python for the web. And if at all you don't want to choose python please don't go for php, it is a dieing language , go for something like node js, goland, java etc those are here to stay 6 Likes 1 Share |

Holymann: If you have patience and Python is what rocks your boat, I will say go for it. Honestly, seeking people's opinion on what language to learn is just going to keep you in a rat race roller-coasting back to square one. Just start with whatever you are comfortable learning, when you start working on real life project, that will dictate the language. I started with PHP, learned Laravel framework to some extent and people talked about NodeJS, I stopped halfway and hopped on it. After a while I heard of django and hopped on the train. After almost two years or running round I found that I didn't really gain any usable knowledge. I then decided to fall back to PHP (Laravel). I put down three straight months and learned it building a school management system. Then I got my first offer. Truth be told, working on the company's project, I learnt 70-80% what I know on Laravel because I faced challenges which I struggled to solve and they stuck. Currently, I use NextJS for my frontend and NestJS for my backend. I hopped on them as job demand. My point is, just start with what you are comfortable with. At a point, you will realize that what programming language you know is inconsequential. You can pick up any programming language you believe is best for the job in less than a week. What matters is your problem solving skill, a programming language is just a tool to implement your solution. Cheer and Happy Coding! 13 Likes 1 Share |

fineboynl: Are you 100% sure about this? Or are you making an assumption? I swear I'm not one to denigrate any programming language because I'm an advocate of technique over language. But you PHP boys really need to up your ante cuz. Nairaland is a customised version of SMF, Simple Machines Forum. SMF was built using Python I guess. 1 Like |
