Go for PHP Developers
Dan Leech

Go is a minimal, compiled language which is ideal for creating microservices. You have heard of it, but can a humble PHP developer versed in OOP and Agile approach Go and prosper? In this talk Daniel will attempt to draw out the parallels and differences between PHP and Go and give you the confidence to try Go for yourself.

We've also got lighting talk about the latest version of composer and possibly one on Github co-pilot.

Your first time coming to PHPSW? Welcome!

Here's how the evening tends to run:

• Feel free to turn up from 6:30pm.
• We'll have a selection of soft drinks & alcoholic drinks available from about 6:45pm, all free of charge thanks to our sponsors. It's a great chance to speak to people (we're a friendly bunch!) and do a bit of networking. Just speak to an organiser if you'd like an introduction to people, or just dive in and say "hello!".
• At 7pm, we'll do a quick welcome talk and some community announcements
• At ~7:10pm we'll have our first talk
• After our first talk, there's a small break whilst we switch over speakers
• At ~ 8:00pm we'll have any lightning talks
• We finish at ~9pm. We always go for a drink somewhere afterwards to discuss the talks and anything else that takes your fancy.
