About The Project
-----------------

[](#about-the-project)

The control package provides a set of interfaces for creating a user management system, including groups and roles.

It also provides a database implementation of these interfaces, leading to a zero-configuration package. Additionally, it provides a full API for accessing and changing data.

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

Usually, you will want to use the portal package. This package is included with the SDK, but to pull it in alone, run

```
composer require bristol-su/control
```

See our [developer docs](https://docs.bristolsustaging.co.uk/books/framework-development/chapter/control) for more information.

Roadmap
-------

[](#roadmap)

See the [open issues](https://github.com/bristol-su/control/issues) for a list of proposed features (and known issues).
