PHP is a scourge. I wish less server software were written in it. You'll stumble upon some opensource project with a cool UI, run into a problem and find out the docker container has apache, postgres, and PHP in it. Debugging PHP is such a pain and setting up a developer environment is such a hassle because they haven't discovered docker for dev envs yet.

Terrible experience all around.
