A couple years ago I wrote a post about how to improve PHP applications performance by using zend-servicemanager lazy services.
In that article I explained how the ServiceManager takes advantage of the proxy design pattern to delay the creation of services, when they are marked ...
I have written a lot of posts about Zend Framework in general and Zend Expressive in particular, but I have noticed that I have never talked about one of the things that, from my point of view, makes Expressive so game-changing, Interoperability.

One could assume the $_FILES array should be populated regardless the HTTP verb, but actually, PHP doesn't do it on its own.
After a long time wanting ...
