    tests

    cache/*

```

Now you should be able to run:

```
vendor/bin/phpcs
```

### PHP Mess Detector:

[](#php-mess-detector)

If you don't have the `phpmd/phpmd` package installed, you can install it by running:

```
composer require --dev phpmd/phpmd
```

Then, in your project's `phpmd.xml` file add the following line:

```

```

If you don't have a `phpmd.xml` file, here's a simple example:

```

    Backdevs Coding Standard.

```

Now you can run:

```
