Why‽
----

[](#why)

- Comments can't be added to composer.json because JSON doesn't allow comments.
- YAML allows comments.
- Bidirectional conversion between YAML and JSON is easy and reliable. (Except for the loss of YAML comments.)
- If loss of fidelity between between YAML and JSON is a concern, fret not. YAML can contain JSON and *still* allow comments.
- The [igorw/composer-yaml](https://github.com/igorw/composer-yaml) project good, but it only converts composer.yml to composer.json. It doesn't run Composer using the new composer.json file, though.
- In contrast, Composery will:
    - Convert composer.yml to composer.json.
    - Run composer using the new composer.json.
    - By default, delete composer.json before exiting.
    - Optionally keep composer.json when exiting, which is useful for debugging or distribution.
