Move outside php
Is there a plan for Laravel to ever move outside the php environment. Maybe something like phalconphp or under a nodejs system?

@virgiltu Sorry but you are just showing your inexperience. Hopefully one day you will appreciate the stupidity of the question.

My question was more pointed to the async functions and the ability to handle a much larger number of requests than php can.

well, one of the things you suggested is another php framework, so if I were you I would stop digging

Tons of Laravel applications use node, I have even setup a laravel to run on hack/hhvm.
what you are asking/proposing/saying is like somebody thinking the andriod os for smart phones should move out of JAVA, C, and C++ to something else...
This is probably one of the least thought through statements of the year. Just take a framework built totally in the realms of php and up root it to some other language. Because I mean thats easy... all the languages use the same core functions, they all have the same type restrictions, and I mean the core syntax is always the same right? HA HA HA. Some peoples kids...

I think https://adonisjs.com/ is interesting and it's built with the same items as Laravel.

@virgiltu Laravel is a PHP framework. Why would it move “outside” of PHP? That’s like asking if Rails is going to move away from Ruby any time soon.

When he brought up phalcon what I thought he meant was making laravel an actual c-written php extension, which is why phalcon is pretty damn fast compared to other php frameworks without a native php extension.

Trust me I know the question was stupid. But as I said before, I was more interested into the non blocking IO. But as somebody here said, I can just build that part of the app in node as an API.
Thanks for all the responses.

If OP needs large enterprise level, then OP would already know how to write custom c++ classes or java technology. OP would understand that php is better suited for small to medium applications, NOT a FEDEX size application.
