/ About /

Packagist is the default package repository for PHP's Composer dependency manager, hosting hundreds of thousands of open-source PHP libraries and packages. Developers can define dependencies in a composer.json file and install them with a single command. Package authors can publish their own libraries to make them publicly available to the PHP community.

/ How it works /

Developers define dependencies in a composer.json file, and Composer resolves and installs them from Packagist's package registry; package authors publish their libraries by submitting a public VCS repository URL.
