<p>Last week, I wrote about <a href="/daily/2025/06/23/giving-things-descriptive-names">giving things descriptive names</a> with value objects in PHP (and other languages).</p>
<p>Previous <a href="/podcast/6-dan-leech-php-tui">Beyond Blocks podcast guest</a>, Dan Leech, gave a great talk about value objects at a local PHP user group.</p>
<p>That talk is not online yet, but the video of the version from the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIKpNzEGQJY">Dutch PHP Conference</a> has just been released.</p>
<p>The slides are also online on Dan's website.</p>
<p>I recommend watching the video and/or reviewing the slides, and start trying to use value objects in your code.</p>
