Product Decisions This Supports

Supports build vs buy decisions by providing a pre-configured PHPCS ruleset tailored to PSR-1/2 with specific customizations (e.g., strict_types declaration, colon spacing rules), eliminating the need to build/maintain a custom standard from scratch.
Enables standardized code quality across multiple repositories, reducing onboarding time for new engineers and minimizing nitpicking during code reviews.
Aligns with roadmap priorities for technical debt reduction, as automated enforcement of consistent formatting prevents regressions and simplifies long-term maintenance.

When to Consider This Package

Adopt if: Your team requires strict adherence to PSR-1/2 with exact customizations (e.g., no spaces before colons in return types, mandatory declare(strict_types=1)), and you prioritize simplicity over modern standards like PSR-12. Ideal for internal projects where consistency within a small, controlled ecosystem matters more than broad community adoption.
Look elsewhere if: You need PSR-
