 |
|
We have just released new preconfigured packages for the latest stable branches of PHP:
* 8.0.2 for both 32 and 64-bit Windows and for macOS
* 7.4.15 for both 32 and 64-bit Windows and for macOS
Download links are available in https://aprelium.com/downloads
The macOS version is a notarized installation package which works on any Macintosh powered by macOS version 10.9 until the latest Big Sur (version 11).
Please keep in mind that PHP 8 may be not compatible with some of your scripts. So be cautious when upgrading: A detailed migration guide is available on PHP's site: https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration80.php .
We'll be waiting for your feedback about the preconfigured PHP 8 packages.

If you develop your own scripts, PHP8 may be interesting as it introduces many new features at the language level: https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php
PHP8 introduces also optimized Just-In-Time (JIT) code compilers that can improve performance for computing intensive scripts. But typical scripts (WordPress for example) won't profit too much from JIT.
So if you're just a "consumer" of PHP scripts, you can stick with the PHP 7.4 branch for a few months until most popular scripts are announced compatible with PHP8.
