# Contribution Guidelines Unfortunately, not every library, tool or framework can be considered for inclusion. 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 recommended regardless of personal opinion b) Well known or discussed within 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 consider seriously whether your project meets the criteria before open a pull request, 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 is preferred. * Please search previous suggestions before making a new one, as yours may be a duplicate. * 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 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. * Please keep descriptions short, simple and unbiased. No buzzwords or marketing jargon. * End all descriptions with a full stop/period. * Check your spelling and grammar. * Make sure your text editor is set to remove trailing whitespace. Thank you for your suggestions!
