## What it is
symfony/debug-pack is a Composer metapackage that installs a curated set of Symfony debugging tools (such as the profiler, error handler, and logging components) in one command. It simplifies setting up a standard debug toolchain for Symfony applications.

## Use cases
- set up debugging tools in a Symfony app
- install the Symfony profiler and error handler quickly
- add standard debug logging to a Symfony project
- bootstrap a dev environment for Symfony development
- get recommended debug dependencies via Composer

## When to choose
- you are starting a new Symfony application and want the standard debug setup
- you want a single Composer command to pull in profiler, error handler, and logging tools
- you prefer Symfony's officially recommended debug package bundle

## When to avoid
- you need fine-grained control over which debug packages are installed
- your project is not a Symfony application
- you want a minimal production dependency set (this pack is for development)

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: developer-tools, logging, tracing, testing
- domain: developer-tools, web-development
- platform: php, cli
- tags: symfony-pack, composer-metapackage, debugging, profiling, error-handling
