Do you think everything written in PHP must be as slow as the stuff you usually write?

Well, the webserver on which we have been running our PHP website seems to be slower and that is why I had mentioned this. This is slower because of our queries that we have been running via PHP codes. Nothing in general. Another reason I mentioned the slower thing is because I believed that it will take a while to reply back. However, this doubt has now been cleared as I have started reading more about chatGPT.

Why don’t you try it with react?

As I mentioned on my post, the programmer was to do it with React but as I am not versed with it, my seniors asked me to attempt it via PHP for now (that way, they would be able to see if it is doable, and so probably when the coder returns, we can do it on React).

Our site is currently not on WordPress, I am trying to get it on WordPress but it wont be happening before December (that is the time frame that I have been given). it could have been earlier if the chatGPT thing might not have cropped up.
