Making a package that can be 'compose’d is on my ‘to learn’ list too.

My suspicion is that there are no Cake specific details to this process.

I won’t be surprised if my IDE, phpStorm offers some tools. And I wouldn’t be too surprised if `git` was involved in some way. But I’m sure nothing specific to the Cake framework will be a factor.

There is [awesome-cakephp/CONTRIBUTING.md at master · FriendsOfCake/awesome-cakephp · GitHub](https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/awesome-cakephp/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)  
But it is mainly default setup of PHP packages in general.
