PHP 8.0!

From today on the hosting RealHOST, it became possible to use the PHP 8.0 version, officially presented at the end of 2020.
PHP 8.0 – this is a significant update to the PHP language. It contains a number of useful features and optimizations, including:

  • Named Arguments - passing values in a function by name;
  • Union Type -  allows you to set explicitly two or more valid value types;
  • Constructor Property Promotion - simplified definition of properties in the constructor;
  • match selection operator (Match Expressions) - in some moments it is a more convenient replacement for switch;
  • Nullsafe Operator – when calling the method chaining makes it possible to do without separate conditional checks for null;
  • Just In Time Compilation – significantly improves efficiency when performing operations where processor performance is of prime importance.
  • as well as improvements to the type system, error handling and consistency, and more.

PHP 8.0 support is present in all tariff plans.
