Very nice plugin, and useful too. I reckon it needs a maintainer's attention though, since the latest PHP version it checks compatibility of is for 7.4.8, which as of this date (27/06/2023) is EOL, and not supported anymore. Perhaps it would be more useful to check for compatibility with more recent versions of PHP's , if not 8.2.

Very Poor. rubbish. They must tell how to use it. Nothing about very important plugins like bitwarden etc. No result found for most commonly used plugins. Very disappointing extension.
