Prerequisites

To be able to develop an Elephox application, you will need at least:

• A working PHP 8.1 (or 8.2) installation
• A working Composer 2 installation
• A text editor (like VS Code) or PHP IDE (like PhpStorm)
• Access to a shell/terminal

Optional prerequisites:

• git

Creating a new project

To create a new project, use the following command:

composer create-project elephox/elephox myApp

Composer will then clone the latest version of elephox/elephox into a new folder named myApp.

In case you want to use git for version control, now is a good moment for the initial commit.

Edit the composer.json to change the name to your projects name and optionally adjust license, type, etc.
