SUMMARY:FFI in PHP 7.4 and beyond
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce the October 2020 event for PHP North
  East\, "FFI in PHP 7.4 and beyond" by Chris Harvey. This is an online eve
 nt streaming here: https://youtu.be/sHfA_b9ozHs\n\nPHP was originally deve
 loped in 1995 as a templating language to sit between C code and HTML.\nA 
 lot has changed in 25 years\, but PHP might just be starting to bring back
  some of those early ideas with the Foreign Function Interface (FFI).\nFFI
  is an interface in PHP 7.4 that allows you to use C libraries (or any oth
 er C compatible ABI’s) inside your PHP code. There are tons of high qual
 ity C libraries out there that can now be used inside your PHP application
 s natively.\n\nI will give you a brief introduction to FFI in PHP to show 
 just how powerful it can be. We’ll run some crazy example applications\,
  and have some real-world examples of how you can use FFI in your own appl
 ications.\n\nAbout Chris\nI am the Lead Backend Developer at Climb (now pa
 rt of Precision Proco Group). We are the developers of the popular Where T
 he Trade Buys printing website. In my spare time\, you can guarantee that 
 I’ll be working on some side project (or several). I like tinkering with
  IoT devices\, trying out Linux distros and contributing to Open Source pr
 ojects.\n\nThank you to our sponsors: Ronald James Recruitment\, Opia and 
 iamproperty who make our events possible.\n\nhttps://www.larachat.co/meeti
