What if #PHP got the "with" keyword/structure from #Python? 🐘🐍

This is what's being discussed in the PHP internals mailing list 👀

Code snippet from the RFC 👉 wiki.php.net/rfc/context-...

What if #PHP had nullable and non-nullable cast operators?

That's what we would like to propose for PHP 8.6 👀

⚙️ #PHP 8.5 sees its cloning supercharged! With the "clone with" RFC merged 5 days ago, we have much more possibilities when it comes to cloning objects.

Supports hooks, readonly, __clone() overriding. Thanks
@timwolla.bsky.social for the #DX improvement! 👏

I didn’t discover AGI but that’s still a great news: #Symfony #JsonPath is fully compliant to the RFC 9535! 🎉

Both using JSON as a plain-string or as a #PHP resource (it’s using @mtarld.bsky.social JsonStreamer under the hood for max speed!).

Time to clean-up the diff and send a PR 😉

Barring an unlikely turn of events, we're going to have the pipe operator with #PHP 8.5!

The new @symfony.com #JsonPath component just got more useful: directly integrate it in your test cases to ensure everything is at the right place in your #JSON string/resource 👀

Experimental and to be tested in #Symfony 7.3 🙌
