I just realized that I haven't updated the FOSS page on the main website for some time. Added short descriptions for a bunch of things that have been built and updated over the past year: Criteria (conditional logic in JSON), Penknife (a compact Blade-inspired template engine), Money (BCMath with rounding for financial calculations), and Colorspace (conversion between color models and more).

I've been busier than I thought!

Hey #PHP. I'm looking for good fully framework-and-orm-agnostic fixture libraries. All I can find is Alice, which is loads-of-yaml and random data. I'm not looking for a DSL or random data. I do want useful defaults for data, however.

Are there any other options? Or is it "Alice or custom?"

Congratulations to @edorian and Daniel Scherzer, the “rookie” release managers for PHP 8.5!

Before starting some project bid evaluations (actually more interesting than it sounds!), Im basking in modest glory of my dev efforts to develop the fantastic Tiny FIle Manager. I added a drop down to the file meta info, tidied up the actions menu. I implemented a locally hosted ViewerJs that pulls filepath dynamically and extended iframe height using window.inner height js, so responsive.

If I wanted to try my hand at generating #PHP code for something like an SDK generator, where would be some good places to start?

PHP property hooks are great until they are not.

It fathoms me how this big oversight got past stable.

Just hit 300,000 installs on my little PHP package

This is how I roll when I need to mark models as "completed", or anything else:

1. Allow the marking to be idempotent
2. If not idempotent, throw exceptions on duplicated calls
3. Save is opt-out, to avoid more than one update query.
