JPHP is an implementation of the PHP language (7.1+) that compiles PHP source code to JVM bytecode and executes it on the Java VM. It enables using Java libraries from PHP, real multithreading, UTF-16 strings, and GUI development via JavaFX or SWT.

Use cases

  • run php code on the jvm
  • use java libraries from php
  • build desktop gui apps in php
  • php with real multithreading
  • compile php to jvm bytecode
  • run php on android

When to choose

  • you want PHP syntax with access to the Java ecosystem
  • you need true JVM-level threading and unicode strings in PHP
  • you're building desktop or Android apps in PHP

When to avoid

  • you need Zend runtime extensions like Curl or PCRE - JPHP doesn't implement them
  • you want a drop-in replacement for php.net or HHVM in web production
  • you need active development - the latest release is from 2021
