About this episode
As PHP and Laravel programmers, we use Composer every day. But we often don't know its history, nuances, or the plans for the future.
In this episode Matt talks with Jordi Bogianno, co-creator and co-maintainer of Composer, about the powerful tool's history, common use cases, and overall purpose. But we also dive into some nuances, some common mistakes, how it differs from NPM, and the future of the tool.
