PHP is fine. Still plenty of jobs to be had, especially if you couple it with WordPress development skills.

Agreed on the technical merit, Daniele. However, I would still recommend it. Here is why. Someone starting out can certainly investigate FastAPI at some point but to make yourself marketable as a newcomer, you need to know what most companies already use (which is Flask and Django in the Python world).

Its design, using global/threadlocal objects rather than arguments passing, is really poor. FastAPI is a much modern lightweight framework to implement self-documenting API and exposes to more modern Python (strong types, async)
