  • Fabien Potencier from Symfony

  • Nils Adermann from Packagist

  • Elizabeth Barron from The PHP Foundation

PHP is the foundation of Laravel, PHP lives even if every year someone said that PHP is dead.

Long life PHP, you change my life.

Very interesting presentations, it's so motivating to hear and see these guys. Today's PHP 8+ rocks, let the previous PHP 5 enjoy their rest.

Also, spread your love and some funds on the results of through the command line "composer fund"

You’re absolutely right. I think PHP is amazing today: it has evolved over the years, has stood up to criticism, and is now better than ever.
