Could you explain what is bloated about OOP PHP?
- naranha 10y agoWhen I write Javascript I don't feel like I need an IDE, but when I write PHP I need a good IDE for imports, getters and setters, stringly-typed frameworks like symfony, "doctrine" annotations. Java at least has some decent free IDEs that can generate the boilerplate that are by far superior to PHPStorm.
- tobltobs 10y ago> When I write Javascript I don't feel like I need an IDE Isn't it more like that with Javascript an IDE can't help you much anyway.
- olemartinorg 10y agoI agree completely. And to expand on that, TypeScript with an IDE is a joy to work with in comparison.
- vesak 10y agoThey looked at the state of Java OOP at the time and just dumped that in PHP without considering the rather large differences between those languages.
- drivingmenuts 10y agoAt the time, Java was the popular language and drove a lot of the thought behind language design. Go, Swift and others were not on the stage at the time.
