They're both good languages. Python is the better language.

PHP is language.

I would compare laravel vs django. Django is framework for python to make APIs.

www.similartech.com may help inform your decision. You can compare any two technologies/languages side by side. Not certain about accuracy. :)

Dwayne Munro I would do a job search to see what languages pop up the most locally near where you live. Then learn that language and stack.

For jobs?

It's PHP and it's not even close. Easiest way to break into the industry as a newbie.
