We have been working hard to ensure that bugs are fixed and v4 is getting close to a release state. As always we would like to thank all of our contributors who have been helping in this effort, as well as everyone on our community sites (forum, discord etc.) for engaging in conversations, sharing criticism and ideas! We couldn’t have made it this far without this input.
We are happy to announce that we have released Phalcon 3.4.2.
This a minor release, focused on bugs mostly.
Just a status update for all of our followers and contributors! As usual, a big thank you to everyone that helps us making Phalcon better!
We always championed transparency, so this blog post is to inform everyone where we are and what decisions we took moving forward - call it a mini roadmap.
We had some requests in the past to localize our documentation for Zephir. Today we are happy to announce that we now have full localization for our Zephir documentation.
For those that do not know, Zephir is the language that Phalcon is written on :) It allows you, the developer, to create PHP extensions using a familiar PHP/Javascript format, without the need to learn C.
We have started an evaluation of all of our github repositories as part of a cleanup process. Some of our repositories were experimental, just to see if things would work. Some are proofs of concept and some are working examples.
However, as our project moves on, it is very often that those experiments proved good or bad, and no longer serve a purpose. Additionally, example repositories tend to not move forward as the project does, and thus become obsolete, or have deprecated code.
It has been a while since we last posted an update regarding Phalcon. We apologize for this. As you all know this is an open source project and all of us in the community contribute using our free time and enthusiasm for the project. However sometimes, other tasks need more immediate attention such as work and family.
