Ask HN: What's the best web programming language?

2 pointsby thatguycheeseabout 16 years ago

I want to start developing web pages but i'm not really sure where to start. I like the idea of PHP, but i've been reading it's a spaghetti language and there are better places to start. Can anyone give me advice? Where to start, where to go? Mostly focused on web development

there is no best language. they're all tools in a toolbox. you can smash a nail in with a screwdriver, but its easier to use a hammer.<p>the question is, what do you want to do? are you new to web development and want to learn a language? do you have experience with other languages? etc..

Get to grips with HTML and CSS before you start worrying about anything else.
