I started with foundational concepts which will overlap some with the official docs. The advantage of my site is I wanted it to be more readable, since the official docs can be hard to navigate. In the future, I want to cover topics like Composer and Slim which would not be appropriate for PHP.net.

That’s cool and does give the comprehensive approach some credence, but still feels like duplicated effort and the potential for outdated content (on both sides).

FWIW, I don’t think giving a more readable aspect to the official docs would be bad. It’s already got way more of that feel than it did in PHP 4, when it had more of an MSDN auto-generated parameter documentation feel. With the clear sections and code snippets I think both could be achieved with little extra effort.
