  • psalm-plugin-symfony

    Psalm Plugin for Symfony

    To feel more like home, you will also need static analysis and Symfony plugin. For IDE: use PHPStorm and EA extended plugin. PHP doesn't have generics but those can be emulated via annotations; not a fun way but you get used after a week.

    all the hate on laravel... 1. laravel is easier to setup 2. certainly easier to use. Way easier. Just to name a few: PAGINATOR. API Resource. Wayyyy easier in laravel. 3.
