Please look at the dedicated issue #135 ! Installation ============ [](#installation) We are suggesting you to use composer, with the following : `composer require attila-erdos/elephant.io`. For other ways, you can check the release page, or the git clone urls. Documentation ============= [](#documentation) The docs are not written yet, but you should check [the example directory](https://github.com/Wisembly/elephant.io/tree/master/example)to get a basic knowledge on how this library is meant to work. Special Thanks ============== [](#special-thanks) Special thanks goes to Mark Karpeles who helped the project founder to understand the way websockets works. ### Health Score 35 — LowBetter than 79% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity21 Limited adoption so far Community18 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity69 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 68.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
