Type-constrained elements collection in PHP ?
These are called generics. PHP currently doesn't support them, but there is work being done towards them being added. There are a lot of complications that need to be figured out before they can be implemented. See https://github.com/PHPGenerics/php-generics-rfc/issues and https://github.com/Danack/RfcCodex/blob/master/generics.md.

Maintainer of Swoole about the Fibers RFC: "I am afraid that fiber can only be used in the amphp framework and is of no value to other php projects."

When coroutines through Generators came to PHP AmPHP picked that up and made it their core model. For ReactPHP you can use RecoilPHP to provide that same kind of And I've always considered that somewhat of a hack because you have to go full in for any thing that uses Generators somewhere in your current dependency chain. So what return type hints came around, it all have to be \Generator.
