The PHP Coding Standards Fixer (PHP CS Fixer) fixes your code to follow the standards.
If you are already using a linter to identify coding standards problems in your code, you know that fixing them by hand is tedious, especially on large projects. This tool not only detects them, but also fixes them for you.
PHP CS Fixer has built-in rule sets, whether you want to follow PHP coding standards as defined by PHP-FIG’s PER Coding Style, a wide community like the Symfony, or our opinionated one. You can also define your (team’s) style through the configuration file.
PHP CS Fixer can not only unify the style of your code, but also help to modernize your codebase towards newer PHP (e.g. @autoPHPMigration) and newer PHPUnit (e.g. @autoPHPUnitMigration:risky).
This is free and open source software.
