+
+## Project Overview
+
+JBZoo Composer-Diff is a PHP CLI tool that compares two versions of composer.lock files and shows what packages have changed. It's particularly useful for visualizing dependency changes after running `composer update`, providing detailed output in console, markdown, or JSON formats with links to compare views on package repositories.
+
+## Core Architecture
+
+### Command-Line Interface
+- Built on **Symfony Console** and **JBZoo CLI** framework
+- Single command application with `DiffAction` as the main command (`src/Commands/DiffAction.php`)
+- Executable binary: `composer-diff` (defined in composer.json bin section)
+- Entry point through the binary file `/composer-diff`
+
+### Core Classes
+- **`Diff`** (`src/Diff.php`) - Main comparison logic with version change detection (New, Removed, Changed, Upgraded, Downgraded)
+- **`Comparator`** (`src/Comparator.php`) - Orchestrates the comparison process between composer.lock files
+- **`ComposerLock`** (`src/ComposerLock.php`) - Parses and extracts package data from composer.lock files
+- **`Package`** (`src/Package.php`) - Represents individual package with version and URL information
+- **`Url`** (`src/Url.php`) - Generates comparison URLs for different Git hosting platforms
+
+### Output Renderers (`src/Renders/`)
+- **`Console`** - Default colored table output for terminal
+- **`Markdown`** - Generates markdown tables for PRs/documentation
+- **`JsonOutput`** - Machine-readable JSON format
+- **`AbstractRender`** - Base class for all output formats
+
+## Common Commands
+
+### Development Setup
+```bash
+make build           # Install dependencies and build phar
+make update          # Install/update dependencies and build phar
+```
+
+### Testing
+```bash
+make test            # Run PHPUnit tests
+make test-all        # Run all tests and code quality checks
+make test-drupal     # Test with real Drupal upgrade scenario
+make test-manual     # Run manual test examples with sample data
+```
+
+### Code Quality (via JBZoo Toolbox)
+```bash
+make codestyle       # Run all linters and code style checks
+```
+
+### Build Process
+```bash
+make build-phar      # Build composer-diff.phar executable
+make create-symlink  # Create symlink vendor/bin/composer-diff → build/composer-diff.phar
+```
+
+### Usage Examples
+```bash
+# Basic usage (compares HEAD:composer.lock with ./composer.lock)
+php ./vendor/bin/composer-diff
+
+# Compare specific files
+php ./composer-diff --source="old/composer.lock" --target="new/composer.lock"
+
+# Different output formats
+php ./composer-diff --output=markdown
+php ./composer-diff --output=json
+
+# Filter environments
+php ./composer-diff --env=require      # Production dependencies only
+php ./composer-diff --env=require-dev  # Development dependencies only
+```
+
+## Package Detection Logic
+
+The tool identifies changes by:
+1. **Version Comparison**: Uses Composer's semantic versioning via `composer/semver`
+2. **Hash Detection**: Recognizes dev packages with commit hashes (40-character strings without dots)
+3. **URL Generation**: Creates compare links for GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket repositories
+4. **Change Classification**: Categorizes as New, Removed, Upgraded, Downgraded, Changed, or Same
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Test Structure
+- **Unit Tests**: `tests/` directory with comprehensive coverage of all classes
+- **Fixture Data**: `tests/fixtures/` contains realistic composer.lock samples for various scenarios
+- **Integration Tests**: Real-world examples like Drupal version comparisons
+- **Manual Testing**: Built-in examples in Makefile for output verification
+
+### Test Scenarios Covered
+- New package installation
+- Package removal
+- Version upgrades/downgrades
+- Dev branch changes (hash-based versions)
+- Complex dependency matrices
+- Different environment filtering (require vs require-dev)
+
+## Build System
+
+### JBZoo Toolbox Integration
+Uses JBZoo's standardized development toolchain:
+- Inherits comprehensive Makefile targets from `vendor/jbzoo/codestyle/src/init.Makefile`
+- Automated code style, static analysis, and testing via `jbzoo/toolbox-dev`
+- Consistent development experience across JBZoo ecosystem
+
+### PHAR Distribution
+- Builds standalone `build/composer-diff.phar` executable
+- Supports global installation via `composer global require jbzoo/composer-diff`
+- GitHub releases provide downloadable phar files
+
+## Dependencies
+
+### Production
+- `php: ^8.2` with `ext-json` and `ext-filter`
+- `jbzoo/cli: ^7.2.4` - Enhanced Symfony Console wrapper
+- `jbzoo/data: ^7.2` - Data manipulation utilities
+- `jbzoo/markdown: ^7.0.2` - Markdown generation
+- `symfony/console: >=6.4`, `symfony/process: >=6.4`
+- `composer/semver: >=1.0` - Version comparison logic
+
+### Development
+- `jbzoo/toolbox-dev: ^7.3` - Complete development toolchain
+- `composer/composer: >=2.0` - For testing with real composer.lock files

+
+# Compare major version upgrades
+composer-diff --source="tags/v1.0:composer.lock" --target="tags/v2.0:composer.lock"
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **PHP**: ^8.2
+- **Extensions**: ext-json, ext-filter
+- **Composer**: ^2.0 (for development)
+
+## Architecture
+
+The tool is built with a clean, object-oriented architecture:
+
+- **`DiffAction`**: Main CLI command handler (Symfony Console)
+- **`Comparator`**: Orchestrates comparison between composer.lock files
+- **`ComposerLock`**: Parses and manages composer.lock data
+- **`Package`**: Represents individual packages with version handling
+- **`Diff`**: Compares package versions and determines change types
+- **`Url`**: Generates comparison URLs for Git hosting platforms
+- **Renderers**: Multiple output formats (Console, Markdown, JSON)
+
+### Change Detection Logic
+
+The tool intelligently categorizes changes:
+
+- **New**: Package added to dependencies
+- **Removed**: Package removed from dependencies
+- **Upgraded**: Semantic version increased (1.0.0 → 2.0.0)
+- **Downgraded**: Semantic version decreased (2.0.0 → 1.0.0)
+- **Changed**: Dev branches with different commit hashes
+- **Same**: No changes (filtered out by default)
+
+### Supported Git Platforms
+
+Automatically generates comparison URLs for:
+
+- **GitHub**: `github.com/user/repo/compare/v1.0.0...v2.0.0`
+- **GitLab**: `gitlab.com/user/repo/compare/v1.0.0...v2.0.0`
+- **Bitbucket**: `bitbucket.org/user/repo/branches/compare/v1.0.0%0Dv2.0.0`
+
+## Development
+
+### Setup
+```bash
+# Clone and install dependencies
+git clone https://github.com/JBZoo/Composer-Diff.git
+cd Composer-Diff
+make build
+```
+
+### Testing
+```bash

+make test-all
+
+# Run specific test suites
+make test          # PHPUnit tests
