PHP Community in the Time of Covid-19
For me, 2020 started out as a great year. A company trip to Marrakesh (where I went ziplining for the first time ever); attending the annual PHPBenelux conference; being accepted to speak at PHPDay in Verona; and giving two talks at ConFoo in Montreal, followed by a week touring around the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. Three continents in three months: the world felt such a wonderful place. |

Generating CI/CD Pipelines for Microservices with Yeoman
Once you start multiplying services, you hit a problem of increased effort spent on non-business logic. With every new application you need to setup all the boilerplate: initial project, dependencies, running tests, building and deploying everything. Most of this things are very similar from project to project but they differ in details so you can copypaste a lot but you need to do it carefully so you don't break a lot of stuff by forgetting to update one line in a copypasted file. This needs a better solution. |

Asynchronous PHP
PHP was designed to solve the web problem, which originally was pretty much about sending out HTML pages in response to HTTP requests. Over the years, web applications also had to perform more and more complex tasks. It is often said that PHP is missing built-in support for asynchronous processing (which, in fact, might appear in PHP 8.1). |
