If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.

Response Methods

The Response class provides several methods for working with HTTP responses:

Working with Headers

Most headers have a single value, so header() is all you need:

Some headers are legitimately repeated by the server — most commonly Set-Cookie. Per RFC 6265 §4.1.1, cookie values must not be folded into a single comma-separated string, so header('Set-Cookie') would silently drop all but the first cookie. Use headerAll() instead:

headers() returns the full map when you need to inspect everything at once:

Key point: Each header name maps to an array of values (string[]), not a single string. This correctly handles HTTP responses where headers like Set-Cookie can appear multiple times.
