Last year we introduced PHP functionality to SourceLair's "HTML" project type. While our PHP support worked really well for our users, it was not clear enough that coding your PHP app should happen in an "HTML/PHP" project.

Thus, we decided to branch-out PHP to its own project type. HTML projects will continue to support PHP, so that people that already code PHP apps on SourceLair won't have to take any further actions.

Coding PHP projects on SourceLair works like a charm. Every PHP project is equipped with a public URL, you can install your favorite libraries with composer (which ships pre-installed in your SourceLair project), while you can enjoy several pre-installed PHP extensions like php5-mysql, php5-sqlite and php5-curl.
