Composer Require Checker is a tool used to verify the consistency of dependencies in PHP projects, particularly when using the Composer package manager. It ensures that all the PHP classes and functions used in a project are covered by the dependencies specified in the composer.json file.

How it works:

• Dependency verification: Composer Require Checker analyzes the project's source code and checks if all the necessary classes and functions used in the code are provided by the installed Composer packages.
• Detect missing dependencies: If the code references libraries or functions that are not defined in the composer.json, the tool will flag them.
• Reduce unnecessary dependencies: It also helps identify dependencies that are declared in the composer.json but are not actually used in the code, helping keep the project lean.

Usage:

This tool is particularly useful for developers who want to ensure that their PHP project is clean and efficient, with no unused or missing dependencies.
