PHP 7.0 vs 7.1 vs 7.2

SaranacLake · October 28, 2018, 7:08pm

My current codebase is written using PHP 7.0.8

I am curious what are the differences between that and PHP 7.1.x and 7.2.x?

Furthermore, why would I want to upgrade to one versus the other?

Trying to balance stayng current without breaking my current codebase.

Suggestions?

7.1 has issues. Use 7.2 or greater. If your code runs on 7.anything it will work on all version 7.

Okay, thanks.

So what “issues” does 7.1 have?
