What is Composer and how can it be used for PHP projects?

Composer is a dependency management tool for PHP projects that helps manage project dependencies and libraries. It allows you to easily install, update, and remove packages that your project relies on. To use Composer for a PHP project, you need to create a `composer.json` file in your project directory specifying the dependencies needed for your project. 

// Example composer.json file for a PHP project
{
    "require": {
        "monolog/monolog": "^2.0",
        "symfony/yaml": "^5.0"
    }
}
