Each component does just one thing and has a small and simple API to learn. ARC uses static factory methods to simplify the API while using Dependency Injection. ARC is not a framework. It can be used in combination with any framework or indeed without. The Ariadne Component Library is a spinoff from the Ariadne Web Application Platform and Content Management System . Many of the concepts used in ARC have their origin in Ariadne and have been in use since 2000. A unique feature in most components is that they are designed to work in and with a tree structure. URL's are based on the concept of paths in a filesystem. This same path concept and the underlying filesystem-like tree is used in most ARC components. Installation ------------ [](#installation) Via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md): ``` $ composer require arc/arc ``` or start a new project with arc ``` $ composer create-project arc/arc {$path} ``` This will download and install all arc components. But you don't need to do this, you can just download the components you really need instead. Below is a list of components and what they do: Components ---------- [](#components) - [`arc/base`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-base/): Common datatypes and functionality shared by all ARC components. Is installed automatically if needed. - [`arc/cache`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-cache/): Cache functionality and a caching proxy class. - [`arc/events`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-events/): Fire events and listen for them in a tree structure, modelled after the browsers DOM events. - [`arc/config`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-config/): Configuration management, storing and retrieving configuration settings in a tree structure. - [`arc/web`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-web/): Simple and correct manipulation of URL's, HTTP Headers and a HTTP client. Also includes a simple intrustion detection component to prevent cross site scripting attacks. - [`arc/xml`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-xml/): Parsing and writing XML made simple. - [`arc/html`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-html/): Parsing and writing HTML also made simple. - [`arc/grants`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-grants/): Access control management in a tree structure, like a filesystem. - [`arc/prototype`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-prototype/): Prototypical inheritance for PHP, like javascript. - [`arc/store`](https://github.com/Ariadne-CMS/arc-store/): Structured (hierarchical) object store, with a simple query DSL. ### Health Score 31 — LowBetter than 66% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity15 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity63 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 65.9% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~346 days Recently: every ~519 days Total 7 Last Release 2313d ago Major Versions 1.1 → 2.02016-01-27 2.1 → 3.02020-03-01 PHP version history (2 changes)1.0PHP >=5.4 3.0PHP >=7.2 ### Community Maintainers ![](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/110959?v=4)[Auke](/maintainers/Auke)[@Auke](https://github.com/Auke) --- Top Contributors [![poef](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1006453?v=4)](https://github.com/poef "poef (29 commits)")[![mjrider](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/213105?v=4)](https://github.com/mjrider "mjrider (12 commits)")[![Potherca](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/195757?v=4)](https://github.com/Potherca "Potherca (3 commits)") --- Tags componentscomponent ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/arc-arc/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/arc-arc/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/arc-arc) ``` ### Alternatives [knplabs/knp-components Knplabs component library 77245.0M48](/packages/knplabs-knp-components)[livewire/flux The official UI component library for Livewire. 9527.8M124](/packages/livewire-flux)[league/uri-components URI components manipulation library 31940.5M93](/packages/league-uri-components)[nette/component-model ⚛ Nette Component Model 28817.0M105](/packages/nette-component-model)[phpoffice/common PHPOffice Common 23812.8M36](/packages/phpoffice-common)[dereuromark/cakephp-tools A CakePHP plugin containing lots of useful and reusable tools 3361.0M51](/packages/dereuromark-cakephp-tools) PHPackages © 2026 [Directory](/)[Categories](/categories)[Trending](/trending)[Changelog](/changelog)[Analyze](/analyze)
