1 year ago Hey I was just requiring this for a specialized task and was checking issues when I saw your fairly recent inquiry.
Yea ... I think you fundamentally misunderstand this. It seems to work fine and does not require any out-of-date dependencies. It's just an adapter to Glide, which is a PHP server-side image server that handles image variants well. If it was originally implemented for this purpose and you wanted to drop it, best alternative would be something like cloudinary, etc.
From what I see, all it does is require some antedeluvial dependencies and supply a do-nothing class in a particular namespace. I am resuscitating a codebase that requires this package in composer.json and I doubt that it is really needed. Keeping this as a dependency prevents me from updating many other dependencies. Appears unmaintained too. Should I try dropping it, or am I fundamentally misunderstanding something about it?
