Download the PHP
package yiisoft/yii2-app-advanced without Composer
On this page you can find all versions of the php package
yiisoft/yii2-app-advanced. It is possible to download/install
these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved
automatically.
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.
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.
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.
Yii 2 Advanced Project Template
Yii 2 Advanced Project Template is a skeleton [Yii 2](https://www.yiiframework.com/) application best for

**NOTES:**
- Minimum required Docker engine version `17.04` for development (see [Performance tuning for volume mounts](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs-caching/))

**NOTES:**
- Yii won't create the database for you, this has to be done manually before you can access it.
When using Docker, the MySQL service creates the database automatically.
- Check and edit the other files in the `config/` directories to customize your application as required.
- Refer to the README in the `tests` directory for information specific to application tests.
