We (I work for Nanobox) listed all the languages we hope to support mainly as an invitation to collaborate. We admittedly do not specialize in all programming languages. Engines are open-source and those who do specialize are invited to create engines for each language. We'll even create the engine for you. We just need to know what the engine should look for and how the environment needs to be configured.

The php part has almost no content. Im also concerned that the custom builds are not documented, its easy to build a dev env with half a dozen rpm files thrown in, but when it comes to getting all your custom extensions etc added thats a bit harder and we cannot judge that as of right now.
There's currently only one php engine, other than the generic php engine, listed on https://engines.nanobox.io/languages/php. However if you look at the generic php engine docs, there's a lot of content: https://engines.nanobox.io/releases/3b30f069-bb16-4f1a-9c36-.... And even more in the Advance config options included in the nanobox-engine-php repo: https://github.com/nanobox-io/nanobox-engine-php/blob/master...
