 Go! AOP framework can be installed with composer. Installation is quite easy:
 
+### Requirements
+
+- **PHP 8.2+** (for PHP 8 compatibility details, see [UPGRADE-PHP8.md](UPGRADE-PHP8.md))
+- **Composer** for dependency management
+
 1. Download the framework using composer
 2. Create an application aspect kernel
 3. Configure the aspect kernel in the front controller

+# PHP 8 Compatibility Guide
+
+This document outlines the PHP 8 compatibility status of the Go! AOP Framework and provides guidance for users upgrading to PHP 8+.
+
+## Current Status
+
+The Go! AOP Framework has been updated to support PHP 8.2+ and includes comprehensive support for PHP 8 language features:
+
+- ✅ **PHP 8.0 Features**: Union types, named parameters, attributes, constructor property promotion, mixed type, static return type
+- ✅ **PHP 8.1 Features**: Readonly properties, enums, intersection types, never return type, final class constants
+- ✅ **PHP 8.2 Features**: Readonly classes, DNF types, null/false/true types, constants in traits
+- ✅ **Basic Framework Functionality**: All core framework components work correctly with PHP 8+
+
+## Known Issues
+
+### getConstants() Method Filter Parameter
+
+The `goaop/parser-reflection` dependency includes a compatibility implementation of `ReflectionClass::getConstants(?int $filter = null)` that accepts the PHP 8 filter parameter but **does not properly implement the filtering logic**.
+
+**Impact**: Code that relies on filtering constants by visibility (public, protected, private) will receive all constants instead of filtered results.
+
+**Example**:
+```php
+// This will return ALL constants instead of just public ones
+$constants = $parserReflectionClass->getConstants(ReflectionClassConstant::IS_PUBLIC);
+```
+
+**Workaround**: If you need filtered constants, use the native PHP ReflectionClass when possible:
+```php
+// Use native reflection when the class is already loaded
+$nativeReflection = new \ReflectionClass($className);
+$publicConstants = $nativeReflection->getConstants(\ReflectionClassConstant::IS_PUBLIC);
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **PHP Version**: 8.2 or higher
+- **Dependencies**: 
+  - `goaop/parser-reflection`: 4.x-dev (PHP 8 compatible)
+  - `nikic/php-parser`: ^5.0
+  - Other dependencies are automatically resolved
+
+## Migration from Older Versions
+
+If you're upgrading from an older version of the framework that used `goaop/parser-reflection` 2.x:
+
+1. **Update your composer.json**:
+   ```json
+   {
+     "require": {
+       "goaop/framework": "^3.0",
+       "php": "^8.2"
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Run composer update**:
+   ```bash
+   composer update
+   ```
+
+3. **Test your application** with the updated dependencies.
+
+## Reporting Issues
+
+If you encounter PHP 8 compatibility issues:
+
+1. Verify you're using the latest version of the framework
+2. Check that all dependencies are up to date
+3. Review this guide for known issues
+4. Report new issues on the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/goaop/framework/issues)
+
+## Contributing
+
+Help improve PHP 8 compatibility by:
+
+- Testing the framework with your PHP 8+ applications
+- Reporting compatibility issues
+- Contributing test cases for new PHP features
+- Submitting pull requests for fixes
