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.
Informations about the package zebra_database
Zebra Database 
A compact, lightweight yet feature-rich PHP MySQLi database wrapper providing methods for interacting with MySQL databases that are more secure, powerful and intuitive than PHP's default ones.
Zebra_Database supports transactions and provides ways for caching query results either by saving cached data to the disk, in the session, by using memcache or redis.
The library provides a comprehensive debugging interface with detailed information about the executed queries: execution time, returned/affected rows, excerpts of the found rows, error messages, backtrace information, etc. It can also automatically EXPLAIN SELECT queries (so you don't miss those keys again!).
Can provides debugging information when called from CLI (command-line interface) and supports logging queries done through AJAX requests.
It encourages developers to write maintainable code and provides a better default security layer by encouraging the use of prepared statements, where parameters are automatically escaped.
The code is heavily commented and generates no warnings/errors/notices when PHP's error reporting level is set to E_ALL.

Features

it uses the mysqli extension extension for communicating with the database instead of the old mysql extension, which is officially deprecated as of PHP v5.5.0 and will be removed in the future; this is not a wrapper for the PDO extension which is already a wrapper in itself!
-
can provide debugging information even when called from CLI (command-line interface)
-
logs all queries, including those run through AJAX
-
offers lots of powerful methods for easier interaction with MySQL
-
supports unbuffered queries
-
provides a better security layer by encouraging the use of prepared statements, where parameters are automatically escaped
