### AI overview

The article argues that the web has become a mature platform with many established ways to build applications. It contrasts the historically dominant LAMP stack with MEAN and contends that MEAN is a reasonable but not uniquely exceptional technology stack.

### Source excerpt

I started my career as a "web developer" circa 2007. I'd dabbled before with Javascript while making sites in HTML/CSS as early as middle school, but that was my first real job as a real software developer. Back in those days, LAMP (Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP) was about the only sensible way to build a web application. You could use Java servlets, of course, or build applications using CGI, but once PHP was stable and available and straightforward, and it quickly became the obvious choice for a huge range of applications.
