Modern PHP
summary
Spells out concrete claims and concrete tools: PHP 5.3 adds namespaces and closures, 5.4 brings traits and short array syntax, 5.5 introduces generators and finally, and 5.6 moves constants forward; argues that Composer and PSR autoloading plus moving application code out of the web root enable modern architectures. Demonstrates toolchain choices—Composer, PHPUnit, Vagrant, AWS—and cites PHP‑FIG standards and framework componentization as reasons these practices actually work, not just theory.
