Tomorrow you’re going to be inheriting our in-house framework that uses legacy code from before PHP 7.0 with zero documentation and no dependency management.

I have a Laravel app I’ve been maintaining for about ten years that will make you hate PHP as well.
Bold of you to assume I don’t hate PHP already.
