In plain words
This is a PHP library providing namespaced functions designed to address inconsistencies within the PHP language itself. It offers developers standardized alternatives to PHP's built-in functions, which often have irregular naming conventions, parameter orders, and behavior patterns. The project targets PHP developers who work with the language's standard library regularly and want more consistent function interfaces for their code. It launched in 2017 as an open-source effort on GitHub to improve the developer experience when working with PHP's native functions.

We're trying to build a wrapper to fix inconsistencies in PHP's core functions, but the project has kind of stalled for a month (personally, I've been crazy-busy with work). Does anyone feels like joining the effort..? This is the repo: https://github.com/nkkollaw/zubr/

PHP API Bindings for Open Brewery DB2024 · github.com · ▲50Howdy! I'm a recent PHP convert after a decade of laughing at PHP memes on r/programmerhumor, and wanted to dive a bit deeper into the language by building something practical with it. I also love beer and decided to combine the two by building a PHP library for the Open Brewery DB API (https://openbrewerydb.org/). Hope someone finds it useful!
