PHP in 2026: Modern Language, Fragmented Tooling
blog
Practical take on PHP and Laravel in 2026: a modern, capable language with fragmented tooling, OS coupling, and DX trade-offs in mixed-stack teams.
Hey! My name is Michaël.
I'm a passionate web developer dedicated to crafting accessible and user-friendly interfaces that make a difference. I believe that every user—regardless of abilities or context—should experience seamless, intuitive digital interactions. My love for clean code and exploring the latest HTML and CSS features fuels my drive for innovation. With a background in martial arts, I bring the same discipline, respect, and commitment to my work, ensuring high-quality, future-proof solutions.
The web is my dojo
This website is my personal training ground. Beyond being a home for my blog, it serves as a laboratory where I experiment with the latest web techniques—specifically pushing the boundaries of modern HTML and CSS.
- Modern First: To see the full extent of these experiments, I recommend using an up-to-date browser.
- Built to Last: I use Progressive Enhancement to ensure that while the "flair" is modern, the content remains accessible to everyone, regardless of their tech.
- Inclusive Design: I strive to follow WCAG guidelines to keep this dojo open and accessible to all visitors.
Help me improve
Since this site is a playground for experimentation, things might occasionally break in unexpected ways. If you find a bug or an accessibility barrier, please report it via GitHub issues. Your feedback helps me sharpen my craft and ensures a better experience for everyone.
