How can one integrate a program from GitHub into a PHP project effectively?

To integrate a program from GitHub into a PHP project effectively, you can use Composer, a dependency manager for PHP. By adding the GitHub repository as a dependency in your project's composer.json file, Composer will automatically download and include the program in your project. This allows for easy updates and management of the external program within your PHP project.

{
    "require": {
        "vendor/package": "dev-master"
    },
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/vendor/package"
        }
    ]
}
