Ask HN: State of PHP at Facebook
Hack is open source.
My understanding from a talk back in 2014, is hack was developed because of frustrations with PHP evolution. Honestly I think it may have lit a fire under the PHP developers because php7 had significant speed improvements.
Talk:
"Facebook recently introduced and open-sourced Hack (https://code.facebook.com/posts/264544830379293/hack-a-new-p...), a gradually-typed programming language for HHVM that interoperates seamlessly with PHP. Hack builds the bridge between the dynamically and statically-typed worlds – providing code correctness while maintaining a fast feedback loop. Facebook is committed to working with the community to improve and refine the Hack language, to help interested developers convert to Hack (https://code.facebook.com/posts/264544830379293/hack-a-new-p...), and to narrow the HHVM compatibility gap with PHP5 and popular frameworks."

Hack Lang: Contexts and Capabilities
Learned of this in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37186869 it was posted 2 years ago to no discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30291459 seems far more interesting than that.
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/blob/master/hphp/hack/doc/H... appears to be where it was proposed, and has more background than the current docs.
- Has Meta/Facebook stopped developing hacklang?
-
Hacklang is no longer opensource?
also fredemmott is not working on it any more https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/9376

Interesting ocaml mention in buck2 by fb
Hack and Flow are also written in OCaml.
-
Buck2, a large scale build tool written in Rust by Meta, is now available
Here is a commit generated by clippy fix without Cargo involved: https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/commit/efea2c4dcc12fdbf3a2e3ce383bbdca2de5f93a9

Taking Hack Seriously - Slack Engineering
Compared to PHP, with its visible community, Hack/HHVM does seem like a dead-end technology. But it’s very actively maintained and it powers the largest website on the planet. It definitely doesn’t make sense for the average PHP developer to switch (and the article steers clear of evangelising) but it also definitely doesn’t make sense for us to switch back.
