Developer experience is awful. Variable names starting with $, heavy object orientism that seems like an after thought, tooling ecosystem is subpar, standard library is a joke, etc
It’s a pile of crap and that’s my opinion
- dagw 3y agoI agree that the language itself has many warts and the standard library is what it is, but I found the modern PHP developer experience and tooling is surprisingly good. At least when working within the Laravel ecosystem.
- WA 3y agoWhat’s wrong with the standard library? Seems pretty extensive. Supports all kinds of DB drivers out of the box, JSON, XML, drawing tools…
