 Installation & setup
========================

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require spatie/lighthouse-php
```

This package relies on the `lighthouse` and `chrome-launcher` js package being available on your system. In most cases you can accomplish this by issues these commands in your project.

```
npm install lighthouse
npm install chrome-launcher
```

Chromium should also be available on the server. On modern versions of Ubuntu, you can do that with this command:

```
sudo apt install chromium-browser
```
