## What it is
A PHP library for programmatically generating PHP code for classes, functions, enums, attributes, and complete files, with support for the latest PHP 8.x features. It can also modify existing classes and produce output compliant with PSR-12/PER coding style.

## Use cases
- generate php classes programmatically
- create php code from templates or metadata
- modify existing php classes at build time
- generate php files for scaffolding tools
- produce psr-12 compliant php code
- generate enums and attributes in php 8

## When to choose
- you need to emit valid, modern PHP code from PHP itself
- you want to manipulate or extend existing PHP classes programmatically
- you need PSR-12/PER-compliant output and support for the newest PHP syntax

## When to avoid
- you need code generation in a language other than PHP
- you only need simple string templating without AST-level structure

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: parser, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, programming-languages
- platform: php, cli
- tags: php-code-generation, nette, psr-12, metaprogramming, code-manipulation, code-generation, automation
