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

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.

NativePHP: A framework for building desktop apps with PHP
I am a bit surprised by the critical tone in the comments here. Phpdesktop [1] is, for example, a very nice application, and the ability of php to just make some simple scripts on the go and have something that works, is wonderful (compared to js where you often have to build etc, the threshold of getting started on a new computer is high). I have several times needed to make simple applications with a database, and php is perfect for that usecase. Making it simpler to share these applications to non-technical users for offline use is nice

Any good resources for developing on windows xp?
Since we're in the webdev subreddit, I suppose you will use a webstack. Here is what I have been using in an institution with a hellish ton of xp computers: PHPDesktop ChromeV47 . PHP is not mandatory, since it basically searches for and index.* file, which can be a html file with a lot of js. Use jquery with ajax calls to make your life easier for API requests and other stuff of old era JS (I dont remember if it supports fetch api and newish QOL changes). You basically develop a web app in a chrome wrapper. Works just fine on oldies.

PHP Desktop seems to use 7.2.12, which reached end of life on late 2020. I wouldn't put my eggs in that basket.

Ask HN: Anybody Using PHPDesktop?
Ever since I found PHP desktop (https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop), I've been having a blast playing around with it. I've created my own "desktop applications" that I use daily. It's quick to build something I need to run locally (on Windows) vs learning/building an actual Windows application. Also I find PHP easier to build MVPs over Javascript (i.e. Electron). I'm curious if anybody else is building anything using PHP desktop? What kind of applications/services did you build or using with it?

From a HTML JS PHP Website to an Installable Desktop Application
Go to this repo https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop by Czarek Tomczak, then search for downloads. As I’m working with Windows, I used PHP Desktop v57.0 for Windows release (https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop/releases/tag/chrome-v57.0-rc). Download the zip file and extract the content wherever you want. Rename the folder as you prefer, you could use the name of your website. Let’s call it Myapp. This is a sort of container with a self-contained web server (Mongoose) and PHP 7.1.3. For example, launching the exe file called phpdesktop-chrome.exe will “read” what’s inside the Myapp/www folder. That’s where you will have to move your entire website to.
