  • New "PECL" - Externals

    Not that I'm aware of. The closest project I am aware of is/was Pickle, was designed to replace just the commandline extension installer.
  • Is PEAR still in use?

    The only alternative for PECL is Pickle, but that thing was dormant for years. It looks like there has been some new development recently so let's hope it can replace PECL sometime in the future.
  • After working with node, THAT is what I have been missing out on?

    There's hope that composer will eventually manage PHP extension installation (pickle) but that's been stagnant.
