Drupal is moving ahead with PHP attributes. Introduced in PHP 8.1, this feature is changing how developers define plugins and manage their metadata. But there’s a lot more that comes with it. First and foremost, PHP attributes are a native feature of PHP 8.1. It eliminates the need for external libraries like "doctrine/annotations." This simplifies the development process by keeping code clean and concise.

@symfonystation Because attributes are a native PHP feature, they support comments. This is a big improvement over annotations!
