Want to bet some people will integrate this into their "prod" Docker containers?

I smell a Medium article coming up.

This built-in server has been around since March 2012. If there are any Medium articles to be written, they're probably out there already.

Titled "5 Reasons you don't need Apache/nginx anymore", filled with misinformation, and a comment section full of people ripping it apart.

Or at least that's been my experience with Medium since I started using it a few months ago.

I bet people won't. Ready-made docker solutions are based around nginx/apache and shared hosting stacks were in place long before php built-in webserver was available. There's no reasons and incentives to change all that.

This web server has been available for a long time. Sure you can misuse pretty much any technology. Rolling your own crypto is possible too but most people don't do it.

People tend to use ready-made Docker containers for PHP deployment. The official PHP image has apache and fpm versions: https://hub.docker.com/_/php/

Most of the enterprise world (which still accounts for far more code in production than startupland) doesn't use Docker.

But they also don't use this web server. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone using this web server, actually, even for development.

Yup. With the way how php has being deploying over the last 20 years I wouldn't be surprised.
