PHP-Solidity 🔷
==============

[](#php-solidity-)

**Write Ethereum smart contracts in PHP.**

PHP-Solidity is a PHP-to-Solidity transpiler. You write smart contracts using familiar PHP 8 class syntax — with typed properties, attributes, and static method calls — and PHP-Solidity compiles them into valid Solidity source code ready to deploy on any EVM-compatible blockchain (Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, Arbitrum, etc.).

> PHP does not *run* on the blockchain. PHP-Solidity uses PHP purely as a **syntax layer**. Your contract file is read, parsed into an AST, and emitted as `.sol` — exactly like how TypeScript compiles to JavaScript.

How It Works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

```
Your PHP Contract File
        │
        ▼
 ContractValidator      checks for blocked types, unsafe constructs
        │
        ▼
 ContractParser         reads PHP with nikic/php-parser → builds AST
        │
        ▼
 AST (ContractNode)     internal representation of the contract
        │
        ▼
 SolidityEmitter        walks the AST and outputs Solidity source
        │
        ▼
   MyContract.sol       valid Solidity, ready for solc / Hardhat / Foundry

```
