Somewhat agree, but it doesn’t really answer the question?

If you could reduce technical debts for a great performance which libraries or frameworks would you choose or choose to roll your own if you are competent enough?

Other languages are easier to set up is when you don't need different web servers and can run on it own,

I would say Javascript has the largest skilled community.

Javascript would be the biggest ecosystem.

Some cloud providers has poor customer experience and you know why.

PHP 8 is an incremental improvement over PHP 7.
