FileSystem for PHP 7.4+
=======================

[](#filesystem-for-php-74)

This is a simple oop library for php 7.4 or above

Why?
----

[](#why)

A lot is happening in the php world right now but there are some fundamental issues that forced the creation of this lib and the ones that are going to follow.

- capitalization of file names and directories
- adding directories just for the sake of composer
- adding namespaces and title casing just for the composer
- interfaces just for the sake of interface

Composer has done a great job but it has also killed the namesapcing feature the way it should be used.

This lib is just a small step towards a better and cleaner php-world.
