ASP vs. PHP Compilation

Question

I am starting a major project and will soon hire developers. Right now I am trying to decide between ASP.net and PHP and strongly lean towards asp since most desktop applications will be written in C #

About 50% of this project will be encoded in a web system. My question is how can I protect the code. Does php or asp provide any form of compilation that will not reveal the source code by default?

Answer 1

On a properly secured server, none of them will show their source code. You must let programmers have a big word in technology choice. Do not be offended, but you are not able to make this choice alone.

My recommendation does not depend on your environment, reveals functionality through web services; it forces MVC separation and gives good hard points for unit testing. Then prototype your web interfaces in both PHP and ASP.Net and see what you like.

If you host the application yourself, then hiding the code will not be a problem. If you sell it, you are stuck to get confused, but there are good tools for both environments.
