Why Create Packages?

By moving common functionality into packages, your application codebase can become smaller and more maintainable.

Packages can have their own test suite. When a bug is found, you can easily distribute the fix to your applications by simply running composer update.

There are also commercial benefits. With open source packages, you as a developer and your company become much more visible in the community, which can lead to exciting opportunities.
