PHP is dead, they say. Meanwhile, roughly three quarters of websites with a known server-side language still run on it.
In this video I compare .NET (ASP.NET Core) and Laravel on everything that matters: language (C# vs PHP), performance, developer experience, full-stack tools, ORMs, ecosystem, security, jobs and salaries. Real code, real numbers, no fan wars.
Whether you're picking your first backend framework or thinking about switching, this will help you decide.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
π KEY FACTS FROM THE VIDEO
β PHP powers about 74.5% of websites with a known server-side language (W3Techs)
β ASP.NET Core on .NET 9 reached about 27.5M requests/sec in the TechEmpower plaintext test (Round 23)
β Laravel handles roughly 2,000 to 5,000 requests/sec in comparable tests, and Laravel Octane narrows the gap
β Reported US salary ranges: .NET about $100K to $150K+, Laravel about $92K to $123K
β 58% of PHP developers don't plan to switch languages (JetBrains State of PHP 2025)
Benchmarks and salaries vary by workload, hardware and location, so treat the numbers as ballparks.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
π§© WHAT WE COVER
β
C# vs PHP code side by side
β
Eloquent vs Entity Framework Core
β
Laravel Livewire and Inertia vs Blazor and Razor Pages
β
Laravel's official packages (Sanctum, Horizon, Telescope and more)
β
.NET beyond the web: mobile, desktop and games
β
Honest "when to choose what" checklist
