Been wiring up this blog for IndieWeb and Bridgy is the special sauce that connects it to more siloed social networks
Originally coined in 1998 during the ​“dot-​com” bubble, I had thought that the term ​“LAMP” had faded with developers in the intervening decades with the rise of language-​specific web frameworks for:
Granted, PHPstill relies on web server-​specific modules, APIs, or variations of the FastCGI protocol for interfacing with a web server. And Python web applications typically make use of its WSGI protocol either as a web server extension or, like the Perl examples above, as a proxiedstandalone server. But all of these are deployment details and do little to describe how developers implement and extend a web application’s structure.
Note how the various four-​letter JavaScript stacks (e.g., MERN, MEVN, MEAN, PERN) differentiate themselves mostly by frontend framework (e.g., Angular, React, Vue.js) and maybe by the (relational or NoSQL) database (e.g., MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL). All however seem standardized on the Node.js runtime and Express backend web framework, which could, in theory, be replaced with non-​JavaScript options like the more mature LAMP-​associated languages and frameworks. (Or if you prefer languages that don’t start with ​“P”, there’s C#, Go, Java, Ruby, etc.)
My point is that ​“LAMP” as the name of a web development stack has outlived its usefulness. It’s at once too specific (about operating system and web server details that are often abstracted away for developers) and too broad (covering three separate programming languages and not the frameworks they favor). It also leaves out other non-​JavaScript back-​end languages and their associated frameworks.
The question is: what can replace it? I’d propose ​“NoJS” as reminiscent of ​“NoSQL,” but that inaccurately excludes JavaScript from its necessary role in the front-​end. ​“NJSB” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, either, and still has the same ambiguity problem as ​“LAMP.”
How about pithy sort-​of-​acronyms patterned like database-​frontend-​backend? Here are some Perl examples:
MRDancer: MySQL, React, and Dancer (I use this at work. Yes, the M could also stand for MongoDB. Naming things is hard.)
MRMojo: MongoDB, React, and Mojolicious
PACat: PostgreSQL, Angular, and Catalyst
etc.
Ultimately it comes down to community and industry adoption. If you’re involved with back-​end web development, please let me know in the comments if you agree or disagree that ​“LAMP” is still a useful term, and if not, what should replace it.
