What is the purpose of developing standalone applications with phpGTK and how does it differ from traditional web applications?

Developing standalone applications with phpGTK allows developers to create desktop applications using PHP language. This differs from traditional web applications as phpGTK applications run directly on the user's computer without the need for a web server or browser. Standalone applications offer more control over the user interface and can provide a more seamless user experience. 

<?php
// PHP code snippet for creating a simple standalone application using phpGTK

$window = new GtkWindow();
$window->set_title("Standalone PHPGTK Application");
$window->set_default_size(300, 200);
$window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk', 'main_quit'));

$label = new GtkLabel("Hello, World!");
$window->add($label);

$window->show_all();
Gtk::main();
