Description:
One of the unsung heroes of PHP 8 is PHP attributes. Attributes are a language-native way to provide accessible metadata on almost any language construct. Huzzah! Joy! New toys!
So what? What can we actually do with attributes, and how can we make them even more powerful? In particular, what can they replace in our older code?
This session will cover PHP attributes, what they are and how they work, as well as how to make them even more powerful with AttributeUtils, a robust user-space library for working with attributes.
