PHP 8 Comment

The comment is a developer guideline. This is not visible on the website page. It exists only for the human reader. The purpose of comment is only to know in the future what you did or guideline for future modifications. Comments are invaluable in helping the next person who reads your code figure out what you were thinking when you wrote it, even when that person is yourself a month from now.
It is good practice to write comments for every function, class, property in your code.
