Full Server Side Support in PHP

Hi, I’ve looked around and the current landscape for chart plotting in PHP (on the server side) is pretty bleak :frowning: Even commercial options aren’t supporting PHP 8.4 yet or are years out of date.

I would like to use Plotly…but…PHP is not one of the currently supported languages. I’m a veteran full stack developer and have used Plotly through several other languages (its my go to for charting), I would be entirely willing to do the ground up support for Plotly in PHP, so it could be fully used server side in PHP projects.

But I have no idea if if its allowed, or who to contact about getting permission, organizing etc. I’m not trying ask anyone else to do the work here; this is something I’m entirely willing to do…but I’m not sure where to start, what guidelines are to be followed when casting to a new language etc.

Can anyone point me in a direction to get started?

Note: this is not about WordPress or Laraval, OctoberCMS integration etc. There are other use cases where you want to render offline, without JavaScript or needing a Google API key etc. etc. …and without having to write a plotting library every time you need that :frowning:
