This talk is an overview of the history of the PHP language and major framework projects that have emerged in the last 5 years. It examines what we've learned in the development of these frameworks, how that education has been brought to bear in Lithium. Most of this talk ended up being me demoing and answering questions, so there's not a lot of content in the slides, sorry.
Lithium: The Framework for People Who Hate FrameworksNate Abele
This is the presentation was given at ConFoo on March 11th by Nate Abele and Joël Perras, and is an introduction to the architectural problems with other frameworks that Lithium was designed to address, and how it addresses them. It also introduces programming paradigms like functional and aspect-oriented programming which address issues that OOP doesn't account for.
Finally, the talk provides a quick overview of the innovative and unparalleled features that Lithium provides, including the data layer, which supports both relational and non-relational databases.
Building Lithium Apps (Like a Boss) was a workshop presented on the structure and philosophy of the Lithium framework and its applications, and how best to take advantage of them.
PHP 5.3 and Lithium: the most rad php frameworkG Woo
Presentation given to the Orange County PHP meetup on Feb 24 2010. The presentation covers the new features in php 5.3 and goes on to show how they are used in Lithium, the most rad php framework.
CakePHP 3 comes with a new ORM. This talk starts with a short history of how this library came to be and then walk through a series of examples from beginner to advanced for using the Querying features of the ORM.

Design Patterns avec PHP 5.3, Symfony et PimpleHugo Hamon
Cette conférence présente deux grands motifs de conception : l'observateur et l'injection de dépendance. Ce sujet allie à la fois théorie et pratique. Le composant autonome EventDispatcher de Symfony ainsi que le conteneur d'injection de dépendance Pimple sont mis à l'honneur avec des exemples pratiques d'usage. Ces cas pratiques combinent du code de l'ORM Propel ainsi que le composant autonome Zend\Search\Lucene du Zend Framework 2
Persistence is one of the most important part in a PHP project. Persisting data to a database came with PHP/FI and its MySQL support. From native extensions and PHP4 database abstraction libraries to PDO and modern ORM frameworks, you will (re)discover how persistence has evolved during the last decade. This talk will also introduce the future of data persistence with the growing success of alternative storage engines.
This session introduces most well known design patterns to build PHP classes and objects that need to store and fetch data from a relational databases. The session will describe the difference between of the Active Record, the Table and Row Data Gateway and the Data Mapper pattern. We will also examine some technical advantages and drawbacks of these implementations. This talk will expose some of the best PHP tools, which ease database interactions and are built on top of these patterns.
Silex is a brand new PHP 5.3 micro framework built on top of the Symfony2 de decoupled components. In this session, we will discover how to build and deploy powerful REST web services with such a micro framework and its embedded tools.
The first part of this talk will introduce the basics of the REST architecture. We fill focus on the main concepts of REST like HTTP methods, URIs and open formats like XML and JSON.
Then, we will discover how to deploy REST services using most of interesting Silex tools like database abstraction layer, template engine and input validation. We will also look at unit and functional testing frameworks with PHPUnit and HTTP caching with Edge Side Includes and Varnish support to improve performances.

Can't Miss Features of PHP 5.3 and 5.4Jeff Carouth
If you're like me you remember the days of PHP3 and PHP4; you remember when PHP5 was released, and how it was touted to change to your life. It's still changing and there are some features of PHP 5.3 and new ones coming with PHP 5.4 that will improve your code readability and reusability. Let's look at some touted features such as closures, namespaces, and traits, as well as some features being discussed for future releases.
Refactoring, Agile Entwicklung, Continuous Integration – all diese für nachhaltigen Erfolg wichtigen Vorgehensweisen setzen Erfahrung mit Unit Testing voraus. Abseits von den üblichen "Bowling"-Beispielen möchten wir gerne einen Crashkurs inkl. Best Practices für das erfolgreiche Unit Testing durchführen. Anhand eines Beispielprojekts auf Basis des Zend Frameworks werden wir nach der Installation von PHPUnit auf allen Notebooks gemeinsam eine kleine Applikation aufbauen, die durchgehend Test-driven entwickelt wird.
PHP 5.3 has many new features that allow very different paradigms of software development, that may be unfamiliar to many PHP developers. If you want to learn more about functional or aspect-oriented programming, or how to organize your PHP libraries according to the new de facto PHP namespacing standard, don't miss this talk.
Hannes Van De Vreken, Software Engineer из Бельгии на конференции CODEID – PHP Odessa Conf #5 презентовал доклад на тему «IoC container beyond constructor injection».
Did you know your IoC container can do a whole lot more than just constructor injection? Besides that it is actually packed with features. Inflectors, resolving callbacks, aliasing, method invocation to name a few. In this talk you will learn how to leverage the power of a great container and service providers to write better, loosely coupled code. Well designed code put together by your IoC container will make your applications SOLID, modular, lean and decoupled from the framework!
CODEiD – это всеукраинское сообщество PHP-разработчиков. Наша цель — создать сильное сообщество всех, кто увлечен PHP-разработкой, и принимать в нашем уютном приморском городе коллег со всей Украины и мира.
Mirror, mirror on the wall: Building a new PHP reflection library (DPC 2016)James Titcumb
Have you ever used PHP's built in reflection, only to find you can't do quite what you wanted? What about finding types for parameters or properties? What about reflecting on classes that aren't loaded, so that you can modify them directly?
Better Reflection is an awesome new library that uses magical time-warp techniques* (*actual magic or time-warp not guaranteed) to improve on PHP's built-in reflection by providing additional functionality. In this talk we'll cover what reflection is all about, explore the cool features of Better Reflection already implemented, the difficulties we faced actually writing the thing, and how you can use Better Reflection in your projects to maximise your reflection-fu.
Meet Magento Sweden - Magento 2 Layout and Code Compilation for PerformanceIvan Chepurnyi
It is a pity, but I have to admit, that Magento 2 has issues in layout generation process. You'll learn during the talk about the benefits of compiling XML structures into PHP code, and even use the compilation of PHP code into PHP code to speed up your modules complex logic.
A lot of people using PHPunit for testing their source code. While I was observing my team I recognized most of them are only using the standard assertions like 'assertEquals()' and are complaining about how hard it is to test the code even when the tests are written first. This talk is about all the stuff not used on a daily basis and it digs deep into uncommon features of PHPUnit.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
