Facebook publishes open source programming language hack, there is no expert interpretation of ~ ~ ~

NetEase technology News March 21, according to foreign media reports, Facebook released a new programming language called "Hack" in Thursday, and said the language would make code writing and testing more efficient and fast.
Facebook has been using the language within the company for more than a year and is now officially released as an open source.
Hack is a programming language developed by Facebook that combines dynamic type languages (such as C) with static type languages (such as the PHP language). Usually when programming with statically typed languages, the developer knows where the error occurs before the program is run. In a more current programming environment, the dynamic type language runs until a program error crashes.
Facebook is a big family that loves PHP, but hack team leader Blaine Oshaliven (Bryan O ' Sullivan) also points out that since many developers are developing many different projects, it will make sense to capture errors before the program runs. This can make the programmer's programming process more efficient, which is just as important as making the program run more efficiently.
As a result, some of Facebook's senior engineers have come together to develop the hack language. Facebook has been using PHP and hack internally for a year, and is now planning to port the code to hack as much as possible. O ' Sullivan says that hack has no real effect on the speed of the code itself.
As for how Facebook will hack open source and questions about who will actually use the language, O ' Sullivan says: "Maybe a lot of people think it's just something important to a big company, but in fact, small teams and individual developers can use hack and benefit from it." We believe that the people who ultimately benefit will be the majority. "(Lu Xin)

First hands in favor!
PHP is getting more and more college, and it has to be a force of forces.
Since there is no real thing to see, only from a simple introduction, Hack followed the PHP syntax description (from this point: not a new language)
Hack combines the two modes of compiling and interpreting, but I do not know whether the compiler is improved on the basis of Zend, or its own original
If it is the former, then it is not interesting. Because this way of working is already in the PHP development plan (This is to be launched in php5.5)
