    # Install Drupal 8 with Composer

    There are several ways to install a Dupal 8 site instance with Composer, but the following includes the automated options that I prefer most.

    ```bash
    $ composer create-project drupal-composer/drupal-project:8.x-dev [[[ /path/to/site/root/parent ]]] --stability dev --no-interaction
    ```
    [[[ /path/to/site/root/parent ]]] = the path to the parent directory above the web/docroot of the site.

    | feature | drupal-composer/drupal-project |
    |------------------------------|--------------------------------|
    | directory structure | web is subdir |
    | installer-paths config | yes |
    | repositories config | yes |
    | includes drush | yes |
    | includes drupal console | yes |
