They are. At this point it's a completely different language with its own stack, as far as I know that will be a core component for the forseable future.
Now they also have modern PHP and some other languages alongside with hack from what I understand.
- rafark 2y agoIt’s not completely different, it’s still mostly the same language with some big additions. If you read their dev blog, you’ll see they fixed a bug that was also present in php a few months ago.

- phyrex 2y agoThat’s just some guy that asserts stuff though. I mean, so am I to you, but fwiw I’ve never seen or heard of any non-hack PHP in the current codebase
