This package provides a [PSR-11](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-11-container.md)compatible dependency injection container that attempts to encourage dependency configuration in static cachaeable manner and using actual code via classes rather than closures to configure dependencies over just configuration.

The container also implements container delegation pattern as described in [container-interop](https://github.com/container-interop/container-interop/blob/master/docs/Delegate-lookup.md)standard.

NOTE: This package is part of a framework that is still highly experimental in nature. Stable api or proper documentation are not to be expected until the framework has been tested in practice.
