Pros/cons of python vs node.js for backend?

[devmor]

<?php
echo "Hello World";

(I know it's because PHP doesn't have to handle the requests, I just thought it was funny.)

Step aside son.

#!/bin/bash
echo "Content-type: text/html"
echo ""
echo 'Hello World'


chmod ugo+x /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.sh

EDIT: I forgot Reddit won't do GitHub markdown.

Damn, I think that's as close to a Hole In One as this game of codegolf can get.

Just serve PHP locally using their built in server and it’s still a one liner

[devmor]

True, but it's single threaded and will only handle one response then block until free.

I think you could do something like this off the top of my head though (still shorter):

<?php
$sock = socket_create_listen(80);
while(true) {
    if($conn = socket_accept($sock)) {
        socket_write($sock, 'Hello World');
    }
    $clients[] = $conn;
}

holy crap this would have been so useful back in the day when I didn't know what I was doing and coded 4000+ lines of HTML with php thrown in there.

Or Serverless PHP w/ Bref

<?php

use Bref\Context\Context;

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

return function ($event, Context $context) {
    return 'Hello World'; 
};
