&lt;span property=&quot;schema:name&quot;&gt;Type Hints and Return Types in PHP&lt;/span&gt;

            &lt;div property=&quot;schema:text&quot; class=&quot;text-content clearfix field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just wanted to drop a quick nod to a long awaited feature in PHP that other languages have enjoyed for a while now… type hints and return types.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On a current project, I had to implement my own user authentication service in Drupal 8. While writing my class, I added new methods that I needed to facilitate the feature scope of the authentication workflow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
