Wait, this PHP-GTK thing is abandonware! Last release in 2008, and only supports PHP 5.5.

Currently, and for most purposes (especially for new projects), PHP 7 is already being considered old... the amount of work that went into PHP 8 vs. PHP 5 is simply staggering.

PHP 5.5 is just too old to develop against!

The same applies to https://php-qt.org/ which "gives you" Qt 4 on PHP 5.1.

Fortunately enough, for those seeking a GUI toolkit for PHP, there's WxPHP which supports PHP 7 and 8:
