Reminder that the current Tide focus is integrating PHPPHP PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. http://php.net/manual/en/intro-whatis.php. Compatibility data from Tide into WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/. Once PHP Compatibility is integrated into WordPress.org, we’ll assess the next focus to provide the biggest impact to the community.

Setup and testing feedback
- When testing the Tide local setup, use this branch as it addresses the issue where the Lighthouse image was failing to build
- Looking for feedback (ideally via GitHub issues) from anyone who has been able to attempt the setup and running of Tide locally
- For those who get the time to run through the local setup and can provide feedback (positive or negative), then we’d appreciate the contribution!
