Please refer to the contribution guidelines and the README file within the doc-base repository for details on how to contribute to PHP's documentation.

The PHP manual is available at php.net/docs.

Creating this setup

For information related to creating this setup, see the contribution guidelines or this page on our documentation website.

Building With make and Docker

• Install Docker (https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)
• Rebuild the documentation using make
• Open output/php-chunked-xhtml/ in your browser.

If the doc-base or phd repositories are available in directories to the adjacent to this directory, those will be used for building.

To force the Docker image used for building to itself be rebuilt, you can run make -B build, otherwise the Makefile will only build it if does not already exist.

You can also build the web version of the documentation with make php and the output will be placed in output/php-web
