## Packages
|
|
|
|
Vapor is a modular framework built for a modular language. Code is split up into modules which are grouped to form packages. Packages can be added to your project by adding the package's Git url to your `Package.swift` file. Once a package is included, all of its modules will be available to `import`. You can read more about packages and modules in the Swift Package Manager [conceptual overview](https://swift.org/package-manager/).
|
|
|
|
Below is a list of packages and modules that come with or can be used by Vapor projects. Packages will have a link to their respective GitHub page.
