Composer

Composer is a dependency management tool for PHP that simplifies package management and project setup. By allowing developers to declare the libraries their project depends on, Composer handles the installation and updates automatically. Mastering Composer involves understanding dependency resolution, version constraints, and autoloading, enabling efficient project management. Staying proficient with Composer enhances code reusability and streamlines development workflows, making it essential for modern PHP projects.
