Collision is a PHP library that provides beautiful, readable error reporting for command-line applications. Built on top of Whoops, it is bundled with Laravel and supports Symfony, PHPUnit, Pest, and other frameworks.

Use cases

• pretty-print php exceptions in the console
• improve error output for php cli scripts
• readable stack traces for phpunit test failures
• add better error reporting to a symfony console app
• debug laravel artisan command errors

When to choose

• you write PHP command-line applications or console commands
• you want clearer exception output in PHPUnit/Pest test runs
• you maintain a Laravel or Symfony app and want better CLI error rendering

When to avoid

• your project is not PHP
• you only need error reporting in web responses rather than the console
• you need a logging or monitoring solution rather than developer-facing error display
