PHP_CodeSniffer users: please read this important announcement: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/issues/3932

squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer is dead, long live PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer!

Also, please consider sponsoring the project to safeguard its continuation, as without funding, we'll have the same problem again sooner rather than later.

#phpcs #php

P.S.: @phpcs now also has its own account, follow it to stay informed.

Coding standards lovers: if I'd be writing some sniffs to check phpDoc tags.... which tags should be taken into account and what would you want checked ?

PSR-19 would be first on my list, but I've got plenty more ideas and have created tag lists for PHPUnit, PHPStan, Psalm and a few more.

Are there more popular tools with custom annotations I should look at ?

Anything specific you'd really like to be able to enforce via #PHPCS ?

Nice addition to CSS! 👉 Chromium Intent to Prototype: form-sizing CSS property

»By 'form-sizing' property, web authors can disable fixed default sizes of form controls, and make their size depend on their content. It's very easy to provide automatically-growing text fields.«

WordPressCS 3.0.0 is now available

What a great job by the maintainer team @jrf_nl, Gary Jones, @made_by_denis.

Important sidenote: "Unless funding is found to continue maintaining WordPressCS and its dependencies, the future is bleak and maintenance will be halted."

Is your employer using the WordPressCS, or are you running a business and are you using it, donate to/sponsor the project, or its maintainers. #WordPress needs it.

Just released: WordPressCS 3.0.0 ! (at long last)

This is an important release which makes significant changes to improve the accuracy, performance, stability and maintainability of all sniffs, as well as making WordPressCS much better at handling modern PHP.

Please carefully read the changelog and upgrade guides before updating!

Other than that: enjoy!
