PHPMailer
The classic email sending library for PHP
PHPMailer – A full-featured email creation and transfer class for PHP. Support for UTF-8 content and 8bit, base64, binary, and quoted-printable encodings. SMTP authentication with LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, and XOAUTH2 mechanisms over SMTPS and SMTP+STARTTLS transports. Validates email addresses automatically. Many PHP developers need to send email from their code. The only PHP function that supports this directly is mail(). However, it does not provide any assistance for making use of popular features such as encryption, authentication, HTML messages, and attachments. Formatting email correctly is surprisingly difficult. There are myriad overlapping (and conflicting) standards, requiring tight adherence to horribly complicated formatting and encoding rules – the vast majority of code that you'll find online that uses the mail() function directly is just plain wrong, if not unsafe! -

Dompdf
HTML to PDF converter for PHP
dompdf is an HTML to PDF converter. At its heart, dompdf is (mostly) a CSS 2.1 compliant HTML layout and rendering engine written in PHP. It is a style-driven renderer, it will download and read external stylesheets, inline style tags, and the style attributes of individual HTML elements. It also supports most presentational HTML attributes. PDF rendering is currently provided either by PDFLib or by a bundled version the R&OS CPDF class written by Wayne Munro. (Some important changes have been made to the R&OS class, however). In order to use PDFLib with dompdf, the PDFLib PECL extension is required. Using PDFLib improves performance and reduces the memory requirements of dompdf somewhat, while the R&OS CPDF class, though slightly slower, eliminates any dependencies on external PDF libraries. -

mPDF
PHP library generating PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML
mPDF is a PHP library that generates PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. The original author, Ian Back, wrote mPDF to output PDF files ‘on-the-fly’ from his website, handling different languages. It is slower than the original scripts e.g. HTML2FPDF and produces larger files when using Unicode fonts, but support for CSS styles etc. and has been much enhanced. Supports almost all languages including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew), and CJK (Chinese-Japanese-Korean). Nested block-level elements (e.g. P, DIV) including margins, borders, padding, line height, background colors, etc. Right-to-left languages are supported, with automatic detection of RTL characters within a document. Transposes tables, lists, text justification, and table cell alignment, as well as a full-text reversal for RTL characters. Automatically detects non-RTL characters and displays these in the original order. -

PhpSpreadsheet is a library written in pure PHP and offers a set of classes that allow you to read and write various spreadsheet file formats such as Excel and LibreOffice Calc. Support for PHP versions will only be maintained for a period of six months beyond the end of life of that PHP version. Use composer to install PhpSpreadsheet into your project. Or also download the documentation and samples if you plan to use them. A good way to get started is to run some of the samples. Don't forget to download them via --prefer-source composer flag. And then serve them via PHP built-in webserver. PhpSpreadsheet relies on Composer autoloader. So before working with PhpSpreadsheet in standalone, be sure to run composer install. -

PHPExcel
Library offering classes to read from and write to spreadsheet formats
PHPExcel is a comprehensive library for reading, writing, and manipulating Excel spreadsheets in PHP, supporting multiple formats like XLS, XLSX, CSV, and more.

Because it handles the details of Excel file structures—including relationships, themes, and various metadata—users don’t need to manage proprietary file internals themselves. The API allows for cell access using row/column indexes or column letters, batch updates, and streaming writes to reduce memory usage. As a mature library, it’s used in reporting, migrations, invoice generation, and any scenario where dynamic, server-side spreadsheet generation is needed in PHP applications. -

Doctrine Collections
Collections abstraction library
Doctrine Collections is a library that contains classes for working with arrays of data. Doctrine Collections provides an interface named Doctrine\Common\Collections\Collection that resembles the nature of a regular PHP array. That is, it is essentially an ordered map that can also be used like a list. A Collection has an internal iterator just like a PHP array. In addition, a Collection can be iterated with external iterators, which is preferable. To use an external iterator simply use the foreach language construct to iterate over the collection, which calls getIterator() internally, or explicitly retrieve an iterator though getIterator() which can then be used to iterate over the collection. You can not rely on the internal iterator of the collection being at a certain position unless you explicitly positioned it before. -

PHP Enum
PHP Enum
The myclabs/php-enum library is a PHP package that provides an object-oriented approach to implementing enumerations, inspired by the SPL's SplEnum.

This approach helps prevent errors related to invalid values and makes the codebase more maintainable. -
