If you've been working in PHP for at least a little while, chances are you've come across a Trait, Interface, or Abstract Class. What are they? How can I use them effectively?

Let's dive in and discover a couple of use cases for each of them, and I'll explain some of their differences (and similarities).

    This is by far my favourite channel for learning SOLID and design patterns. I've struggled with this subject for so long.
  • @Tuto1902
    Always a good idea to refresh the basics. Thank you 👍
  • @DallinHitchcock
    Man, this is so clearly explained. What a great refresher. Thanks Andrew!
  • @Dekedence
    Really appreciate the real-life example of play/concert/movie to illustrate when best to use trait and interface.
  • @siphosethudlomo
    Straight to the point. I'll be watching this video a lot in the coming months, thank you.
  • @bsky1998
    Awesome explanation! I found your channel through our mutual buddy Salazar, and you explained these concepts a bit better than Jeffrey Way did when I first saw his PHP OOP series on Laracasts years ago. Keep em coming!!
  • @VitorJustin
    Such a clear explanation! Thank you, Andrew!
  • @Staeufer
    Thanks for the explanation and the examples. After reading the docs, I wasn't quite sure why all 3 exist and when to use them. Now with all 3 in context together, it makes perfect sense.
  • @fayetan1959
    thank you, explanation is easy to understand and follow
  • @KHALEDMORSHED
    Such a helpful tutorial, it boosted my basics. Thank you ❤
  • @andrewmusholt9327
    I knew Interfaces, I knew Traits, I literally have never thought of Abstract classes as a combination of those two things - thanks!!

    Traits are one of my favorite PHP features, they’re so helpful. I have a tenanted B2B application which runs in both the “user context” and the “business context” interchangeably. With a shared trait on both my User and Business models, I can access and interact with the current user (or their business) on either model, or even on any of their Eloquent relations too. Makes for great DX in a complex application like this one.
