## What it is
A Composer plugin that normalizes and consistently formats composer.json files. It can also be used as a standalone PHAR via Phive for projects without Composer plugin support.

## Use cases
- normalize composer.json formatting
- enforce consistent composer.json style across contributors
- sort and tidy composer.json fields automatically
- lint composer.json in CI
- stop merge conflicts from inconsistent composer.json formatting

## When to choose
- your team edits composer.json frequently and formatting drifts
- you want automated, opinionated normalization of composer.json
- you need a CI-friendly tool to keep composer.json tidy

## When to avoid
- your project does not use Composer
- you prefer fully manual control over composer.json layout

- maturity: active
- function: formatter, json, cli, developer-tools
