Once I was disappointed at dockerizing Nodejs applications. Runing npm install was like leaving earth for mars. Thanks to Yarn for saving my ass. But nowadays PHP composer has taken that place. Running composer install in Docker used to take a huge time and slow down CI/CD speed. But I’ve managed to speed up the build process with some ninja techniques.

Use prestissimo with composer. It’s a plugin to download packages in parallel. But I’d like to label it as Yarn of PHP. However, don’t forget to install prestissimo before running actual composer install.
