On June 8, 1995, Rasmus Lerdorf released the first version of the PHP language. Over time, PHP has become the most popular server-side programming language, now powering over 70% of websites!
13+
14+
Exactly 30 years after the first release of PHP, we are proud to announce that [FrankenPHP](https://frankenphp.dev), a modern and high-performance application server based on Caddy, is now part of [the PHP organization on GitHub](https://github.com/php/frankenphp).
15+
16+
As a reminder, FrankenPHP offers features that are unique in the PHP ecosystem:
17+
18+
* simplify the development of applications written in PHP;
19+
* drastically improve performance, while considerably reducing hosting costs (FinOps) and energy consumption (GreenOps);
20+
* facilitate deployment in production, whether on bare-metal servers, or in cloud-native environments;
21+
* easily develop real-time features thanks to native [Mercure](https://mercure.rocks) protocol support;
22+
* extend PHP apps with Go, C, and C++ programming languages;
23+
* support the PHP programming language in any application written in Go (server, proxy, in-house development…).
24+
25+
The move of FrankenPHP into the PHP organisation follows the announcement of FrankenPHP support by the PHP Foundation, in collaboration with [Les-Tilleuls.coop](http://Les-Tilleuls.coop) (the creator of FrankenPHP) and the team maintaining [the Caddy web server](https://caddyserver.com).
26+
This is the first step towards greater integration of the tool into the language ecosystem.
27+
28+
The roadmap and new features that are likely to change the way PHP applications are developed will be announced at the **[JetBrains PHPverse 2025](https://lp.jetbrains.com/phpverse-2025/)** online conference on June 17, to celebrate PHP's 30th birthday. There is still time to register, and it's free!
