Is there any small PHP runtime (interpreter) for learning PHP? I think creating my own PHP runtime is a good way to understand how PHP works.
It seems that C language has some toy compilers for learning but I could not find it for PHP.
I prefer the following condition:
small c compiler for educational purpose
Update 1
I'm looking for PHP toy compilers for learning the programming language like TCC: Tiny C Compiler. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_C_Compiler
Update 2
This site shows that PHP has the following execution processes.
1 Lexing
2 Parsing
3 Compilation
4 Interpretation
I want to understand the all processes. I need to read the official interpreter but it seems be difficult for me. So I want to start with smaller one.
Again this may not be what you're looking for;
But I always found installing a mock apache server with PHP was the easiest way to learn PHP (and practise building within an environment in which PHP is most commonly used)
A simple IDE (Notepad ++) and XAMPP (or WAMP) set up will have a local server with the easy ability to use PHP.

Notepad++: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/
Like I say; this may not be what you're after...
Yes there is, it's called PH7: https://ph7.symisc.net/
This is a single file embeddable PHP interpreter compatible with approximately 5.3 with some enhancements.
Note however that it does not implement the majority of the PHP standard library.
Rebuild PHP5/7 with:
This will technically reduce the size of the interpreter and the number of extensions installed.
You should be able to provide these options during "./configure" step, see "./configure --help" for more information about it.
