Oh, I must have read the comment too early in the morning and I cannot edit it anymore, apologizes. I completely agree about the PDF developer experience.
And I agree with your statements on PHP, to a certain extend! I was born somewhere between ‘no php’ and ‘everyone hates php’. In between those years I spun up crazy dynamic websites with a single file while others were still installing Python deps. I think php got to large for its own good, but loved those earlier years.
