PHP Packages
Plain PHP libraries with no framework lock-in. They follow PSR standards and work the same in Laravel, Symfony, Slim, or a single script. Documented end to end and free under the MIT license.
Libraries That Go Anywhere
None of these packages require a framework. Each card shows the exact Composer command.
Readable
Human-friendly formatting for plain PHP. Turn numbers, byte sizes, money and durations into readable text, with predictable output and optional Intl locales.
Rss
A lightweight, dependency-free RSS 2.0 feed generator for PHP 8, with a fluent API, strict validation, and built-in Atom, Content, Dublin Core, and Media RSS extensions.
Hijri
Hijri (Islamic) date support for PHP built on Carbon. Convert Gregorian dates to Hijri and back, parse Hijri strings, and format month names in Arabic or English.
Slugify
Framework-agnostic slug generation for PHP. Keep Unicode or transliterate to ASCII, use any separator, split camelCase and acronyms, and add your own replacement rules.
Dot Array
Read, write, check and delete values in deeply nested PHP arrays with dot-notation paths like user.profile.name and wildcards like users.*.email.
No Framework Required
Built to fit into any codebase, including one that has no framework at all.
Portable
One API across Laravel, Symfony, Slim, and plain PHP. Switch frameworks without switching libraries.
PSR Compliant
PSR-4 autoloading and standard interfaces, so they plug into existing containers, loggers, and HTTP clients.
Strictly Typed
Written for modern PHP with typed properties and native enums, and checked by static analysis.
Fits Any Framework
Use them in plain PHP, or inside your Laravel, Livewire and Filament apps.
