I will not write the code for you but pretty much you have the idea right.
Read the directory, if you don't want to find mimetypes and just do it
by extension find all files that have a .pdf.
Then when you find one of those files have the array do something like:
$arr[file_date_here] = ['name']. This however is not really expandable
but will work.
Then you can sort by the index of the array and do a simple foreach as
key value.
