Collections Laravel Package
illuminate/collections
Illuminate Collections provides a fluent, chainable API for working with arrays and iterables in PHP. Includes Collection and LazyCollection with powerful mapping, filtering, grouping, sorting, and higher-order operations, used widely across Laravel and standalone projects.
Technical Evaluation
Architecture fit: The package provides a fluent, chainable collection interface for array manipulation, ideal for PHP projects requiring expressive data processing. It integrates seamlessly into Laravel ecosystems but also works standalone in any PHP 8.3+ application. However, if the project already uses native PHP arrays or alternative libraries (e.g., Symfony's Collection), redundancy may arise. Best suited for projects needing Laravel-style collection methods without full framework dependencies.
Integration feasibility: High feasibility via Composer, but requires PHP 8.3+ and compatibility with illuminate/conditionable, contracts, and macroable dependencies. Risk of dependency conflicts if the project already uses older
