Installation
------------
-The easiest way to get a working copy of this project is to do a recursive
-clone:
+The easiest way to get a working copy of this project is to clone the repository
+and use composer to install dependencies:
- git clone --recursive git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git
+ cd my/project/dir
+ git clone git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git
+ cd ZendSkeletonApplication
+ curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php (windows: download http://getcomposer.org/installer and execute with PHP)
+ php composer.phar install
-After the clone is complete, set up a virtual host to point to the public/
-directory of the project and you should be ready to go!

-Git Submodules
---------------
-This project makes use of [Git submodules](http://book.git-scm.com/5_submodules.html).
-Utilizing Git submodules allows us to reference an exact commit in the upstream
-[zendframework/zf2](https://github.com/zendframework/zf2) repository and ensure
-that those who have cloned the project have that same commit checked out. This
-provides several benefits:
-
-* Developers do not have to worry about which commit of the zf2 project to have
- checked out for this project to work.
-* No additional steps to "install" Zend Framework are needed; it "just works"
- after a cloning the project.
-
-There are a couple of mild caveats to be aware of:
-
-* Be sure to always run `git submodule update` after pulling, as merge/rebase
- does not automatically update the checked out commit in submodules if it has
- been changed.
-* The initial clone will be a bit slower, due to it having to pull down a
- separate copy of ZF2 from what you already have.
+Afterwards, set up a virtual host to point to the public/ directory of the
+project and you should be ready to go!
