When managing WordPress websites, you often encounter complex operations such as installation, update, and multi-site conversion. These operations are not only time-consuming, but also prone to errors, causing the website to be paralyzed. Combining the WP-CLI core command with Composer can greatly simplify these tasks, improve efficiency and reliability. This article will introduce how to use Composer to solve these problems and improve the convenience of WordPress management.

I encountered a tricky problem when developing a small application: the need to quickly integrate a lightweight database operation library. After trying multiple libraries, I found that they either have too much functionality or are not very compatible. Eventually, I found minii/db, a simplified version based on Yii2 that solved my problem perfectly.

During the development process, we often need to perform syntax checks on PHP code to ensure the correctness and maintainability of the code. However, when the project is large, the single-threaded syntax checking process can become very slow. Recently, I encountered this problem in my project. After trying multiple methods, I finally found the library overtrue/phplint, which greatly improves the speed of code inspection through parallel processing.

In the process of developing a website, improving page loading has always been one of my top priorities. Once, I tried using the Miniify library to compress and merge CSS and JavaScript files in order to improve the performance of the website. However, I encountered many problems and challenges during use, which eventually made me realize that Miniify may no longer be the best choice. Below I will share my experience and how to install and use Minify through Composer.

I'm having a tricky problem when developing a front-end project: I need to manually add a browser prefix to the CSS properties to ensure compatibility. This is not only time consuming, but also error-prone. After some exploration, I discovered the padaliyajay/php-autoprefixer library, which easily solved my troubles with Composer.

When developing PHP projects, you often encounter the problem that some functions or methods have been executed for too long, causing program timeout. I've tried multiple solutions, but the results are not satisfactory until I discovered the phpunit/php-invoker library. This library completely solved my problem by setting the timeout time to call the executable function.

When developing websites using CraftCMS, you often encounter resource file caching problems, especially when you frequently update CSS and JavaScript files, old versions of files may still be cached by the browser, causing users to not see the latest changes in time. This problem not only affects the user experience, but also increases the difficulty of development and debugging. Recently, I encountered similar troubles in my project, and after some exploration, I found the plugin wiejeben/craft-laravel-mix, which perfectly solved my caching problem.

When using TYPO3CMS for website development, you often encounter problems with installation and configuration extensions. Especially for beginners, how to properly install and configure TYPO3 and its extensions can be a headache. I had similar difficulties in my actual project and ended up solving these problems by using Composer and TYPO3CMSComposerInstallers.
