I don't understand why there is need for php_something_abcd() as global functions, maybe static... and not organized, switch could happen automatically with upgrade_helper, maybe in the beginning only as forwarder with warning

objects are coming in 2000, data programming ongoing research(also monorepo research on the way), getcomposer libs astonishing forwarder bypass/shim needed...

today some linux hackers could do some regex shit with pipe and mv, but I think some utility Earth Wonder could do that also in some IDE

Isn't PHP "C but jank"? I don't know exactly what you're referring to but it sounds par for course.

In Rust it is so easy, you just type "cargo fmt" and it works out of the box, also in Deno you can just type "deno fmt" and it works out of the box.

With PHP first you must use install Composer, then you must get PHPStan with Composer, then you must pick a profile to lint against.

Or just simply use an IDE

Somehow I am curious to know what you are trying to say.

Genuine curiosity - What would be good choices for an IDE with proper PHP support?

phpstorm or vscode ....

I've been using phpstorm for a number of years; before then I tried to use netbeans (but felt it was a clunky and slow and lacking features that phpstorm had).

Phpstorm has a free trial period, and if you're a FLOSS contributor I believe you can get a free licence.

Not strictly true. You can download PHPStan (and many other tools) as a phar (PHP archive), same as Composer itself.

Besides, with Rust you must first get Cargo, yes? Sure, Cargo makes a lot of things easier, but Rust does benefit for being a younger language, appearing at a time when such tools were expected to be in the programmer's toolbox already.

False. You have to install Cargo or Deno first as well. Slipped your mind, maybe?
