Annotations in PHP: They Exist

Annotations are more than phpdoc comments, they’re a fully-featured way of including additional information alongside your code. We might have rejected an RFC to add support into the PHP core, but the community has embraced this tool anyway! This session shows you who is doing what with annotations, and will give you some ideas on how to use the existing tools in your own projects to keep life simple. Developers, architects and anyone responsible for the technical direction of an application should attend this session.

In this universe Jono is a well known figure, with vast experience in managing and participating in online communities, which credits him as a perfect candidate to write a book like this one.

In many conversations about how products and systems evolve within companies, a recurring theme emerges: the pitfalls we encounter. One of the most significant is the pattern of the major rewrite, sometimes called “building off to the side.” Now, don’t get me wrong – a well-executed strangler pattern can lead to amazing transformations of codebases and products.
