I know it may not be ideal but is it possible?

Yes, pretty easy with either using websockets (e.g. laravel echo) or polling your server at a specific endpoint at an interval. 4chan X uses polling but for more dynamic shit (like live chats) you wanna use websockets.

Either way you're going to use JS to do the dynamic updates to the UI.

Here's a real-time chat system without any JavaScript. It's written in Go rather than PHP, but the principles should still apply.

The only alternative is Go and its syntax is ugly as fuck.

What's going on OP? Did kirara finally lose it?
>>105709372
Yeah this, though I'd use zkm2's fork. **Can comment on this a lot if OP wants.**

PHP is Turing complete, so yes.

Yes, but I've seen worse. PHP comes to mind.
