Install without Composer? #101

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Hi, I'm new to Plates and wish there was a method "offline" to install Plates, because I do not like to depend on Composer to install it. Is there any way to install without composer? Thanks.

Composer has worked well for us. But you can just download the repo if you prefer. Just go the main repo page and 'Download ZIP'. Since you don't get the autoloader you will either need to implement your own or just require the main plates file

Yep, as @rogerroelofs mentioned, you can just download the package as a zip file. More instructions found here: http://platesphp.com/installation/#downloading-zip-file

I would highly recommend that you do use Composer. It's really the future of PHP, and makes managing dependencies a LOT easier.

Good luck!
