# Packages and the package types

Packagaya manages two types of packages:

  1. Apps (Applications)
  2. Libs (Libraries / Frameworks)

# Apps (Applications)

Applications are programs which can be executed by a CLI.

For example:

  • Webserver
  • custom scripts
  • CLI programs

ATTENTION

Applications should never link to another Application!

You should use a library if you want to share informations between these packages!

# Libs (Libraries / Frameworks)

Libraries are packages which contain reusable definitions for applications and other libraries.

For example:

  • Entities
  • Dependency Injection definitions
  • Database connection creation

Libraries can always link to another library!

WARNING

You need to be aware of circular dependencies! Create another library if you have this situation!
