title: Is SOAP Outdated?
body: <p>I wish to open up my PHP website to Android, iOS and Windows 8/Windows Phone.</p>
  
  <p>I've been looking at the library for PHP SOAP and I've got it working.</p>
  
  <p>Although I've done this, I've seen people posting online that SOAP is "outdated".</p>
  
  <p>Is it, and if so, what are the alternatives?</p>
