All I want for Christmas…

Read Original

The article is a reflective piece from a PHP developer, originally part of an Advent calendar series. It asks what single change developers would want for PHP, setting aside practicality. The author's wish is for a compile-time step in PHP, drawing parallels to JavaScript's transformation through tools like TypeScript, Babel, and asm.js, which added static features and improved developer experience.
