  1. php-legacy-compat

    PHP 8 legacy compatibility layer to fix removed and deprecated functions (create_function, each, ereg, etc.) in WordPress, Laravel, Symfony and legacy PHP applications.

    That is why I built PHP Legacy Compat, an open-source PHP 8 compatibility layer for applications originally written for PHP 5.x and PHP 7.x.
