plus-1: A PHP repository from nunomaduro

For full documentation, visit php-plus.com.

Plus is a runtime compiler that adds features to PHP - It’s also a package that you can require using composer and is mainly used to add features and syntactic sugar to existent PHP code. Of course, those features arrive in PHP using runtime source code transformations without any performance loss.

Plus is beautifully integrated with PHP's existing ecosystem. It starts from the same syntax and semantics that millions of PHP developers know today, and it does not get in the away of the developer - begins and ends with PHP.

Plus is just like regular PHP - it was first-class debug, and it's supported by the most common code editors. It's carefully crafted to make you the most productive developer in the world.

It was created by, and currently maintained by Christopher Pitt, Nuno Maduro, and Oliver Nybroe. Artwork is provided by Caneco.

Then, in your editor, add the following declare:

<?php

declare(plus=1);

class User
{
    // A readonly property cannot be assigned after the constructor exits
    public readonly string $name;

    // No need for the `t_function` keyword
    public __construct(string $name) {
        $this->name = $name;
    }

    // One expression functions with return statement
    public getUppercasedName(): string => strtoupper($this->name);
}
