PHP vs ASP.NET

PHP and ASP.NET are among the most popular programming
languages when it comes to web development. Considering the
popularity of both languages, selecting between the two languages
can get complicated.
It is the battle among two giants. On one side, we have PHP, a
heavyweight in popularity of its scripting language on the internet
and a robust ecosystem of hire PHP programmer and an even larger
base of voracious fans. On the other hand, we have ASP.net, a
platform backed by Microsoft itself.
While PHP is a general-purpose scripting language, especially for web
development, ASP.NET is a server-side web development tool
developed by Microsoft for web applications development. It is vital
to hire a PHP programmer to leverage language features to build
robust web applications.
Launched in 1994, PHP is a scripting language, especially for web
development. Created by Danish-Canadian programmer Rasmus Lerdorf,
PHP stood for Personal HomePage. However, now it stands for recursive
initialism PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.

An open-source, server-side web-application framework, ASP.NET allows
programmers to build dynamic web sites, applications and services.
Developed by Microsoft, ASP.NET is built on the Common Language
Runtime (CLR), allowing programmers to write ASP.NET code using any
supported .NET language.

Well, PHP gets an edge when it comes to the learning curve due
to simple coding lines, which is easy to learn. ASP.NET is difficult
for beginners as it is written in C#. The syntax is difficult and
complex to understand for experienced programmers.
Differences between ASP.NET VS PHP
Learning Curve
Secure web applications are the need of the hour. ASP.NET and PHP
both provide security features. However, ASP.NET comes with in-built
security features such as SQL injection to ensure security.
Differences between ASP.NET VS PHP
Security
On the other hand, PHP provides tools for security. The PHP platform being
an open-source platform, data, and information, lacks a preventive
mechanism. The workflow and the mechanism driving PHP is accessible to
the public. This ease of use can also negatively impact your website and
destroy your online business. ASP.Net, on the other hand, is carefully
managed and regulated by the team at Microsoft. Security and data
management continues to be a central concern area.
Undoubtedly, PHP has a larger community of developers
compared to ASP.NET. First, PHP is open source, and its large
community of developers comes up with solutions to overcome
challenges faced during the PHP web app development process.
However, ASP.NET is regulated by the Microsoft team’s dedicated
developers.
Differences between ASP.NET VS PHP
Community Support: ASP.NET vs PHP
Both communities regularly post on online forums intending to
streamline the development process. If you stumble upon a roadblock,
you’re most likely to find both organizations helpful.
When it comes to a framework’s performance, it mainly depends
on the clean and consistent coding. The understanding of ASP.NET
is comparatively better than that of PHP.
Differences between ASP.NET VS PHP
Performance
The lack of standardisation or regulation is often considered why PHP is
not regarded as suitable for large scale websites. While ASP.Net comes
with a strict coding language and a well laid out process to identify,
report and repair bugs and errors.
Standardisation
It is important to understand the strength and weakness of your
team, technical expertise and objectives before you narrow down
on ASP.NET or PHP. Remember, ultimately everything boils down
to your business goals.
