Frequently Asked Questions
Why convert PHP arrays to objects?
Objects provide property access syntax ($obj->key instead of $arr['key']), type hinting, IDE autocompletion, and clearer intent. Many modern PHP codebases prefer typed DTOs and value objects over associative arrays.
Does this tool execute PHP code?
No. The tool uses a custom JavaScript parser that reads PHP array syntax without executing any PHP code, making it safe for any input.
Can I convert nested arrays?
Yes. The converter handles deeply nested associative arrays, indexed arrays, and mixed structures, converting each level appropriately.
