PHP doesn't have an image problem in 2026. It has a tutorial problem.

Too many "learn PHP" articles still teach PHP 5.6 and PHP 7.x patterns while modern PHP has evolved dramatically.

Today’s PHP means:
✅ Strict Types
✅ Enums
✅ Attributes
✅ Readonly Classes
✅ Property Hooks
✅ Dependency Injection
✅ Composer
✅ Modern Testing
✅ Laravel & Symfony

If your tutorial still uses "mysql_*", no namespaces, and no Composer, you're learning PHP history—not modern PHP.

The PHP ecosystem deserves more up-to-date educational content. 🚀

Good things take time. We are happy that we released Sulu 3.0. Over the last years we replaced the whole PHPCR Content Storage with a new one based on Doctrine/ORM to make Sulu more easier to understand and use for #Symfony and #PHP Developers.

From Chaos to Craft: The Evolution of PHP Frameworks

Early 2000s: No frameworks, just raw PHP.
2005: Symfony introduces reusable components.
2006: CodeIgniter and Zend bring MVC mainstream.
2011: Laravel makes PHP elegant again.
2020s: Async frameworks like Octane, Swoole & RoadRunner reshape performance.

PHP grew because of frameworks, not despite them.
