Composer is required to install Dotkernel Admin. You can install Composer from the official site.
First make sure that you have navigated your command prompt to the folder where you copied the files in the previous step.
Run this command in the command prompt.
Use the CLI in order to ensure interactivity for proper configuration.
composer installYou should see this text below, along with a long list of packages to be installed instead of the [...].
In this example there are 171 packages, though the number can change in future updates.
You will find the packages in the vendor folder.
No composer.lock file present. Updating dependencies to latest instead of installing from lock file. See https://getcomposer.org/install for more information.

[...]The setup script prompts for some configuration settings, for example the lines below:
Please select which config file you wish to inject 'Laminas\Validator\ConfigProvider' into:
[0] Do not inject
[1] config/config.php
Make your selection (default is 1):Type 0 to select [0] Do not inject.
We choose
0because Dotkernel includes its own ConfigProvider which already contains the prompted configurations. If you choose[1] config/config.php, an extraConfigProviderwill be injected.
