  • India will become number 1 source of PHP developers soon (6 days ago)

    Posted on: 2009-07-30
    Summary: The number of Indian PHP developers has been growing at a large pace in the last few years, when compared to other countries. A few years ago, India was just one of the top ten countries with more PHP developers. Now India is number 2 and is almost surpassing United States, which is still number 1.

    This article presents a reflection about why this growth happened just in the latest years, as well what it means for the PHP world.

    Sandeep Kadam, a leader of the PHP community in India gave an interview to help clarifying this subject.
