## What it is
Underscore.php is a PHP utility library inspired by Underscore.js that provides around a hundred methods for manipulating arrays, strings, objects, numbers, and functions with an elegant, chainable syntax. It can be used standalone via Composer or as a bundle within the Laravel framework.

## Use cases
- manipulate arrays with chainable methods in php
- port underscore.js style utilities to php
- consistent argument order for php string functions
- convert between arrays objects and  in php
- fluent collection manipulation library for laravel
- helper methods for strings numbers and functions in php

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new modern PHP project, since the library is unmaintained with no license file and last released in 2018
- you need actively maintained alternatives like Laravel Collections or ramda-style libraries
- your project requires guaranteed long-term security updates

- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, programming-languages
