Should I move the web folder?

Question

Yii

A colleague started to deploy a new application and a debatable question arose, is it worth taking out the contents of the web folder from the basic version of yii2?
All arguments are based on the fact that everyone does this, although I have never seen it.
If yes, in what cases is it justified?

Answer 1

Looking as the server is configured. The removal of the web is justified so that the contents of the web are in the public folder, and the rest of the framework files are outside the public folder. It's security and it's less of a tambourine dance around .htaccess. It's easier when autosubdomains. Yes, and purely aesthetically beautiful.
In any case, there are pluses, no minuses.
