Easier, or at least easy, fun, less compatibility issues when you live in a pure js and json world on the front and backends, productive, good libraries, good built-in libraries, easy to deploy, productive.

Converting to JSON is pretty easy in almost any language.

And the framework I currently use is productive, has good libraries, has good built in libraries. Has a good security record and is extremely productive and stable. Deployment is one area where it doesn't shine. If that's the best reason for choosing a language I would be using PHP.

And it doesn't involve JavaScript, which is in my opinion a benefit.
