Collection
==========

[](#collection)

Minmalistic typed arrays/collections for PHP.

There are many collection libraries for PHP, but none exactly like I wanted. Most collection libraries add quite a lot of extra functionality I'm not looking for.

What collection does:

- Simple & lightweight
- Array syntax
- Allow typehinting for array of objects

### Motivation

[](#motivation)

Typehinting "array" in PHP is not really descriptive. Sometimes its preferable to use collection-like typed arrays. This library provides common parent to make creating these collections less boilerplatey.

### Install

[](#install)

`composer require silvanus/collection`

### Usage

[](#usage)

Create your own collection class that extends abstract parent.

```
