If you know anything about Drupal 8, you'll know that there's a Symfony going on in the basement. What you might not know, is that a Composer is orchestrating all of the parts in one harmonious piece of beautiful music.

In this season, we'll learn:

• What Composer is and where it came from
• How to install Composer
• How you can use Composer in any PHP project
• The best practices when using Composer with Git
• How Symfony uses Composer
• How Drupal will use it in Drupal 8
• How Drupal will (hopefully) use it in the future.

The only thing you'll need for this concert of sorts is enough wit to run commands on the command line, and a basic understanding of PHP.
