Context: some Rust kid vandalized cppreference.com today.
That kid is an asshole because cppreference is doing the lord’s work.
Also, I know that language choice is one of the most important decisions when starting a new project but, personally, I work on a highly performance sensitive project that’s written in PHP. If you think you need Rust to be performant or type safe then you don’t really know what you’re doing yet. It makes it easier and increases theoretical limits - that is all.
Is PHP strongly typed?
It’s a choice left up to developer but you can have static and runtime type checking enabled for as many functions as you desire. Theoretically you can have collection subtype checking but I’d say that PHP is still quite frail here as proper collection typing lacks any template-style typing but needs dedicated collection types.
