PHP reimagined

Read Original

The article presents a developer's subjective, hypothetical redesign of PHP. It advocates for stricter language defaults to enforce better coding practices, such as making classes final by default, requiring all function and property types, eliminating the 'mixed' type, and mandating visibility modifiers. It's a thought experiment about language design, not a critique of the PHP core team.
