š¤¦āāļø Iām obviously talking about the platform, not the language itself. PHP platform is standalone. JavaScript platform needs a hosting program. This program can be anything: a database (mongo), a browser (the DOM), a generic C runtime (Node), a game engine (Unreal). Even PHP can run JS
And platform is an environment where language is ran. I'm talking about that already.
PHP needs Zend VM, or any other implementation of the language.
JavaScript needs V8 or any other engine capable of running JavaScript. It doesn't need browser, it doesn't need DOM.
There is no difference there.
GraalVM can run multiple languages at once. graalvm.org/
It's about implementation, not a language.
