This transcompiler does not try to emulate the JVM, but produces a human friendly output close to the original Java source (unlike to LLVM based solutions).
It supports any Java versions up to Java 9 as source, and produces PHP 7 code.
This is an experimental project in its early stage. Do not use in production.
