Optionally, you can embed the PHP scripts in the final binary using a Go feature similar to `include_bytes`: https://frankenphp.dev/docs/embed/

But for PHP, it's even simpler: PHP is available as a C library, and we just use it. (libphp can be embedded using static compilation, or used as a dynamic library, we support both).

Yes, but that's completely independent from whether / how you embed the scripts? (Which you do via the the procedure described in your first link?)

Btw, how does your version of PHP compare to Facebook's Hack? I had opportunity to use Hack a few years ago, and I think it's the best language they could have made (from PHP as the fixed starting point).
