    composer is just a tool that manages your dependencies, you can download the code of php spreadsheet and use the library independently in your code. – Danyal Sandeelo Jul 05 '21 at 10:01
  • @DanyalSandeelo can u elaborate more. i want to use php office/spreadsheet without using composer. i don't know how to explain it. I just want to create excel file using php but not using composer. Is it possible? – crossbow Jul 05 '21 at 10:07

    composer doesn't have to do anything with spreadsheet. You need to study first what is composer and why is used. – Danyal Sandeelo Jul 05 '21 at 10:15

    Besides that: is there any good reason not to use Composer to install packages? – Nico Haase Jul 05 '21 at 10:38

    Composer just provides an easy way to install PHP software packages such as phpoffice, and thousands of others, into your application. If you want to install the package another way (such as just copy and pasting the code files) then that's up to you. It's completely separate from the way you actually use that package to create an excel file. – ADyson Jul 05 '21 at 11:58
