Recently, PHP 8 release candidate 2 was posted by the
project. A lot of changes are coming with this release, including a just-in-time compiler, a good number of
backward-compatibility breaks, and new features that developers have been
requesting for years. Now that the dust has settled, and the community is
focusing on squashing bugs for the general-availability release scheduled for November 26, it’s a good
time to look at what to expect.
