How this comparison was built

Scores are medians across 1185 audited PHP sites and 3 audited RxJS sites in the BeaverCheck database. Every audit runs the same 100+ checks — Lighthouse performance, security headers, accessibility, SEO, server response time — against a real URL. No vendor input, no sponsorship, no affiliate links.

Small sample: one or both technologies have fewer than 10 audited sites. Treat these numbers as directional — medians stabilize around 20–30 audits per side.

Which has better security, PHP or RxJS?

Which is better for SEO, PHP or RxJS?
RxJS sites score higher on Lighthouse SEO signals (94 vs 91 on average), which cover meta tags, crawlability, mobile friendliness, and structured data. Content strategy and backlinks still matter more than platform choice for ranking.
