PHP and probably accounts for half of that 35 percent.• Most of the other major content management systems, such as Drupal
and Joomla, are also built in PHP. • Half of all developer job postings on Craigslist call for PHP developers.• PHP is used by 81.9% of all the websites whose server-side
programming language we know.
