Nice to have features
- Add command to create new project.
- Add more analyzers:
- Add analyzer via config and not as composer dependency.
- Detect if analyzer is already loaded on the local machine and use that instead of download.
- Add custom analyzers.
- Add SaaS analyzers via API.
This project is a work-in-progress and needs some love related to code clean up, test coverage and documentation.
