    1. I’m currently in the “God, it’s difficult handling X in vanilla PHP. How do the frameworks do it? Oh, there’s a PSR for that.” loop. Do you want to write your own framework? This is how you write your own framework. *sobs quietly*

    7 months or so in and PHP, as a language, gets some mid-level mehs out of me. Big and useful stdlib. Barely useful runtime type checking. Powerful in that you can get going super quickly, but also vanilla php growing quickly provides some nasty foot guns.

      It’s roughly as useful as typescript to me for a backend language. I’d never start a project without a framework, though. Too much freedom. I rarely desire that when I’m building something that other people might work on.
