First stable release line of PurHur/php-compiler.
Highlights
- README rewritten for newcomers: architecture (VM / JIT / AOT),
phpcCLI, examples, honest capability snapshot - Demo-ready subset: examples 000–007, MiniWebApp native execute,
phpc build/phpc deploy - Contribution policy: coordinate on other channels before GitHub issues/PRs; align with maintainer AI-agent workflow
- Experimental self-host: M0–M4 spine 726/726, M5 vendor prelink in progress
Lineage
This project continues Anthony Ferrara's original ircmaxell/php-compiler (MIT). This fork is a separate continuation with LLVM 9 JIT/AOT, phpc, web examples, and bootstrap/self-host work.
