Like it or not, PHP and Haxe are _radically_ different languages – built at different times and for different worlds. Asking for an automatic tool to convert between one and the other is, to me, like asking for a tool that will convert an apple into a watermelon. Yes, both of them might be “edible things,” but they truly bear no exploitable resemblance to one another. ---

The haxe compiler is a tool which does automatic conversion between haxe and php 😉 And doing a php compiler which outputs to haxe might be possible as well. ---

Haxe compiles to PHP _very_ well. ---

Yes, it compiles _ **to** _ PHP quite nicely, although deficiencies of the PHP language’s design leave a lot of things to be desired. However, that’s not what we’re talking about here. You can’t take PHP code and meaningfully convert it _into_ Haxe code. Certainly you will not wind up with something that gains particular advantage by being “Haxe” source-code. Sure, the PHP language is inching forward, as it always does, in various ways (that are usually incompatible with prior versions of itself), but I just finished an enormous conversion-and-rehab project in which _none_ of the source-code started out as PHP-7 and some of it was in _(dear God)_ versions of the language. “It wasn’t pretty.” **5,993** files’ worth of stuff that was _not_ pretty. . . . _(but, by gawd, it works)_ . . . 🤯 . . . does _four+ million dollars every month,_ and it . . . works. ---

Did you convert to Haxe? Any chance for a detailed (blog) post?
