FAQ
After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.
Example:
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.
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 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.

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.

Usage
Search for packages:
You can limit results to a desired amount of pages:
Get package details:
Gets full package details, generated dynamically by the Packagist API.
Consider using getComposer()
instead to use the Packagist API more efficiently if you don't need all
the full metadata for a package.
Get composer details: {#get-composer-details}
Similar to get(), but uses Composer metadata which is Packagist's preferred
way of retrieving details, since responses are cached efficiently as static files
by the Packagist service. The response lacks some metadata that is provided
by get(), see Packagist API documentation
for details. Returns multiple packages, you need to select the requested
one from the indexed array.
