Heroku employee here. Yes there's been a PHP community buildpack for some time. I'm glad you got it working. Moving PHP to be officially sanctioned and "supported" by Heroku is subtle but significant: We've hired a full time PHP owner. We've got PHP docs on the devcenter https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/php-support https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/php-support and more importantly the features we document are "supported". If you've got problems with them we will provide application specific support (to the extent of supporting our docs and the platform). It also means that the experience will continue to get better as new features are added, and that PHP has a voice in the future of our platform. PHP on Heroku has been a highly requested feature, and we're investing a good amount to make the experience a good one.
