Packagist Description
Packagist is the main repository for composers. It aggregates public PHP package installable with Composer. Your project's root directory should contain a file called composer.json, which contains your project dependencies. Packagist is Composer's default package repository. It allows you to find packages and allows Composer to know where the code is. Composer can be used to manage dependencies for your library or project. First, choose a package name. This is an important step because it cannot be changed and should be unique enough so that there are no conflicts in the future. A package name is composed of a vendor name and project name, joined by a/. To prevent conflicts in naming, the vendor name is necessary. The composer.json file should be located at the top of your package’s git/svn/ directory. It is how you describe your package to composer and packagist. The VCS repository contains tags that you create to automatically fetch new versions of your package.
Packagist Alternatives
Rails Assets
Rails Assets is the frictionless proxy for Bundler and Bower. It converts the packaged components into gems, which can be easily dropped into your asset pipeline. First, ensure bundler >=1.8.4. First, add Rails Assets to your new gem source. Next, refer to any Bower components you need as gems. If you are having issues with SSL certificates or security is not a priority in development, you can use an alternate endpoint. Bundler can request a package like this during bundle install. Rails Assets' daemon will automatically fetch the component from Bower.json and analyze it. Then, it will repackage the component in a valid Ruby gem, and serve it to your application. Recursively, dependencies are handled in the same way. Rails Assets Gems can be used with any Sprockets-based app. It also works with Sinatra!

Bower
Websites are made up of many things, including frameworks, libraries and assets. Bower handles all of these things for you. It can be difficult to keep track of all these packages, or to make sure they are set up correctly. Bower comes to your rescue! Bower can manage components that include HTML, CSS, JavaScript and fonts. Bower doesn't combine or minify code, or do anything else. It just installs the correct versions of the packages and their dependencies. Bower fetches and installs packages from all over the internet. It also takes care of searching, finding, downloading and saving the stuff you need. Bower keeps track these packages in a manifest file called bower.json. You can choose how you use packages. Bower offers hooks that allow you to use packages in your tools and workflows. Bower is optimized to work on the front-end. Bower will download jQuery once if multiple packages depend on one package, such as jQuery.
