   Howdy HN! I've been recently jumping into PHP and wanted to share a few thoughts I had that I hope are helpful for anyone looking to pick up the language. I've been having a blast learning the ecosystem and stumbling my way around

   Appreciate the feedback! I'll be the first to admit I have a tendency to C#/Java-ify code in languages that I attempt to learn (could definitely argue it's a bad habit) due to nearly a decade of working with them. Any advice
