In PHP, how do I hash strings in vanilla PHP?

In vanilla PHP, you can hash strings using the password_hash function. This function provides a secure way to hash passwords and other sensitive data. Here’s an example of how to use it:


        <?php
        // The string to hash
        $string = 'your_password_here';

        // Hash the string
        $hashedString = password_hash($string, PASSWORD_DEFAULT);

        // Output the hashed string
        echo $hashedString;
        ?>
