Summary
Used to manage the installation of third-party
PHP libraries.
Notes
- Used to automate the installation of PHP libraries such as Twig, PHPMailer, Auryn Injector, Phinx and PHPUnit.
- This should aid migration to AWS server as Composer can be run as part of Dev Ops process.
- My only hang up is that opportunities to use this tool are relatively few and far between which means I usually have to look up commands each time I use it.
- However the commands are simple e.g. composer require phpmailer/phpmailer so its not an issue.
