FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

The service provider (RateLimiterServiceProvider) is automatically registered via Laravel’s package discovery. If auto-discovery is disabled, add it to config/app.php:
Optionally, register the facade for cleaner syntax:
Publish the configuration file:
This copies rate-limiter.php to your config/ directory.
Configuration
Edit config/rate-limiter.php to adjust limits and Redis settings:
Add these to your .env file if needed:
Usage
