# Contribution Guidelines
Please ensure your pull request adheres to the following guidelines:
Unfortunately, not every library, tool or framework can be considered. The aim of Awesome PHP is to be a concise list of noteworthy and interesting software written in modern PHP. Therefore, suggested software should:
a) Be widely recommend regardless of personal opinion
b) Well known or discussed in the PHP community
c) Be unique in its approach or function
d) Fill a niche gap in the market
Self-promotion is frowned upon, so please seriously consider whether your project meets the above criteria before making a suggestion, otherwise it may be closed without being reviewed.
Also, please ensure your pull request adheres to the following guidelines:
* Software that is PHP 5.5+, Composer-installable, PSR compliant, united tested and well documented are preferred.
* Please search previous suggestions before making a new one, as yours may be a duplicate.
* Libraries that are PHP 5.3+, Composer-installable, PSR compliant, tested and documented are preferred.
* Enter a meaningful pull request description.
* Please make an individual commit for each suggestion in a pull request.
* Put a link to each library in your pull request ticket so they're easier to look at.
* Put a link to each library in your pull request ticket so it's easier to review.
* Use the following format for libraries: \[LIBRARY\]\(LINK\) - DESCRIPTION.
* Prefix duplicate library names with their vendor or namespace followed by a space: Foo\Bar would be Foo Bar.
* New categories, or improvements to the existing categorisation, are always welcome.
* Keep descriptions short and simple.
* Keep descriptions short, simple and unbiased.
