Why? Put the category first so it makes it easy to skim and sort dependencies. You're never going to organise your dependencies based on what the individual functions, types or sub-packages are called, and sorting based on something th

Regardless, it's a good way to reach people that care about robust distributed systems or queers in tech or both. Do you have a business model already? Are you aiming for something like GemStone/S?

The Laravel developers expect you to use Stringable::macro if you want to extend their 'fluent' API, and if you're working in an organisation that builds with the Laravel toolchain that's probably what's least surpr
