GitHub - pxp-lang/pxp: A superset of PHP with extended syntax and runtime capabilities.

https://github.com/pxp-lang/pxp

I'm wondering what people's thoughts on this project are?

I've had my eye on it for a while and it seems like it'll be to PHP what Typescript is to JS. Which is exiting if we can't get native support for some of these features.

If that one approved, I think it's the best thing ever happen to PXP/PHP, because variable types or other are... well... it's needed to keep code clean enough, imho

Thanks for sharing!

Yeah it opens a whole new world of possibilities for what we could add to the DX of the language.

AFAIK he's currently working on the language tools for IDE support, which will help a lot in adoption.
