Hi,
I’m very interested in the App Platform, but would like to know what the latest version of PHP is available. I’m specifically interested in hearing if 8.1 is supported.
Thx

Hello, @telkins
PHP versions 7.x and 8.x are supported. PHP 7.x will be used by default, unless a specific version is requested via composer.json by your app or a dependency. To configure the version used for your app, add a php dependency to composer.json like so:
- {
- "require": {
- "php": "^8.1.0"
- }
- }

For more details please see the PHP buildpack documentation
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
