Just to clear some things up, composer is *not* a package manager. It is actually pretty terrible at being a package manager, mainly because it's not supposed to be one. The purpose of composer is solely dependency management.
Because of that, using it as a package manager requires using some hackish techniques as mentioned above, where you require the MW core as a library (even though it isn't one). That's the main reason I'd consider not using composer. *-- * *Tyler Romeo* Stevens Institute of Technology, Class of 2016 Major in Computer Science www.whizkidztech.com | [email protected] On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 12:06 PM, C.
