README

A Composer plugin and console toolkit designed to unify and standardize development workflows. Built to provide a seamless interface for PHPUnit, PHP-CS-Fixer, Rector, EasyCodingStandard (ECS), and phpDocumentor.

✨ Features

• Aggregates multiple development tools into a single command
• Automates execution of tests, static analysis, and code styling
• First-class support for automated refactoring and docblock generation
• Integrates seamlessly as a Composer plugin without boilerplate
• Configures default setups for QA tools out of the box

🚀 Installation
