What I would change about PHP

Read Original

The article presents a developer's personal wishlist for changes to the PHP programming language, ignoring backwards compatibility concerns. Key proposals include adding generics, moving away from runtime type checks in favor of static analysis, creating a superset language similar to TypeScript, implementing cascading attributes, introducing scalar objects, and adding a pipe operator. It is a technical opinion piece on PHP language design and potential future evolution.
