PHP Kilo
A reimplementation of the Kilo tutorial in PHP. Also has some inspiration from the Hecto text editor tutorial. Requires PHP 8 and FFI.
Requirements
- PHP 8
- FFI enabled
Implementation notes:
- The
editor
prefix has been removed from all the relevant functions, instead they are methods on one of the implementation classes. - Enums are faked with class constants
- Composer is used for autoloading
- Properties that must be manually updated in the C version (like counts/string length) are implemented with magic methods, so they are essentially calculated on read.
- Generally, if a function exists in PHP, with the same name as the C function, the PHP version will be used.
- Classes are used to modularize functionality, and reduce the amount of functions with global side effects
