PHP is still in demand, especially in:

  • CMS
  • Small startups
  • Service companies
  • WordPress/Laravel ecosystem

But long-term growth depends on:

  • Framework exposure (Laravel preferred)
  • Real project complexity

🚨 Things To Verify Before Joining

  1. Is this Laravel or Core PHP?
  2. What is stipend amount?
  3. Is there conversion to full-time?
  4. How many hours per week?
  5. Is there live client project exposure?

🧠 Strategic Advice

You’ve reviewed:

  • Java backend
  • React frontend
  • Shopify
  • Game dev
  • PHP backend

Right now, your applications look scattered.

If you choose PHP path, focus on:

  • Laravel
  • REST APIs
  • Authentication systems
  • E-commerce backend

If you choose React path, drop PHP roles and go all-in.

🚀 My Direct Question

Do you currently have:

  • 1+ year PHP experience?
    OR
  • Just academic projects?
