Implied dependencies
====================

[](#implied-dependencies)

Package that prevents installing superfluous polyfills. It’s a public repository so it can be published in packagist. It’s probably not useful for anybody outside of InterNations.

How it works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

The package requires a particular PHP version and a particular set of PHP extensions and specifies a `replace` section for polyfills that no longer need to be installed. This `replace` section prevents the installation of said dependencies.

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

Run `composer require internations/php-implied:~`, so e.g. `composer require internations/php-implied:~7.4.0` to install the metapackage.

----------
