dereuromark/composer-prefer-lowest
Composer plugin to help you work with prefer-lowest setups by managing minimum dependency versions and related constraints. Useful for testing packages against lowest supported dependencies and keeping composer.json requirements consistent.
This package directly informs critical product decisions around dependency management for reusable libraries. It validates backward compatibility requirements, reduces technical debt by identifying overly strict version constraints early, and eliminates the need to build custom CI scripts (build vs. buy). For roadmap planning, it prioritizes compatibility as a core quality metric, ensuring library releases maintain broad environmental support without unexpected regressions.
