FluentDOM

FluentDOM is a small library that encapsulates PHPs DOM API. Up to version 4.x it was mostly an implementation of the jQuery Traversing and Manipulation APIs. Version 5 is an reimplementation. This interface is still here and implemented in the FluentDOM\Query class.

But it now provides several classes that extend the PHP DOM classes. They provide shortcuts, syntax sugar and some workarounds for bugs.

Static Class: FluentDOM

The FluentDOM class provides static functions that are entry points into the library.
