Ask HN: Resources/talks/outlines for modern PHP practices?

by eatonphil·11y ago·1 comments·view on hn ↗
I first started on PHP 5-7 years ago when PHP was still a mess. I've been coming back to it now via the company I work for. I'm looking to learn best practices and whatnot for modern PHP. What are your favorite resources/talks describing design patterns and best practices for modern PHP? I'm looking for anything from GC optimization to overall structure of PHP libraries, etc.

Herb Sutter's "Back to Basics: Essentials of Modern C++ Style" is an example of one of my favorite such talks for C++. Hopefully that can steer the discussion.

Look at Awesome PHP: https://github.com/ziadoz/awesome-php

You are now probably going to get to learn about using composer to pull down PHP packages. (similar to node's npm)

Also, look at the PSRs for coding standards: http://www.php-fig.org/faq/
