Cross platform development options

In other news: your silence is noted Mr Supersecretagentman
 
With regards to APIs:

PHP - if you really must for some weird reason :sick:
NodeJS is by far the more popular
Go - learning curve
Python - use bottle.py etc.
Java - Spring Boot

Not sure how far C# Core has come a long, but you could potentially use C# for cross platform.

Of the above, NodeJS means using NPM which I'm not fond off. Python gives me the giggles and takes me to my happy place, Go is boring AF but this is exactly the type of work is is meant for and works very well, Java.. pom files and what not :(
Have started playing around with node.js
Is interesting how far this has gone in the 10+ years I have been out of programming.

Wrote a command line sockets program that runs quite well.

What are the issues with mom you refer to?

Moms tend to forget we are grown men and still think of us as their little boys. Boundary issues mostly :(

As for npm - I just don't like how dependent packages are nested under a package. It can really get out of control quickly and in my experience it is frustratingly slow. That said it is probably not a big issue for a node specialist.
