A Symfony polyfill package that provides fallback PHP implementations of the intl extension's ICU-related classes and functions when the ext-intl extension is not installed. It covers Collator, NumberFormatter, Locale, IntlDateFormatter, IntlListFormatter, and intl error helpers, limited to the 'en' locale.

Use cases

  • run PHP code that uses intl classes without installing ext-intl
  • make a PHP library portable across hosts missing the intl extension
  • get NumberFormatter and IntlDateFormatter fallbacks in English locale
  • avoid fatal errors from missing Collator or Locale classes
  • add intl compatibility shim via Composer

When to choose

  • your PHP package depends on intl classes but must work on hosts without ext-intl
  • you need a lightweight Composer-installable compatibility layer
  • your app only needs English-locale formatting and collation fallbacks

When to avoid

  • you need full ICU support for non-English locales
  • the intl extension is already installed and guaranteed on your target environment
  • you need complete IntlListFormatter or locale-aware behavior parity
