+Install the Guzzle HTTP client with PSR-18 support:
+
+```shell
+composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle --prefer-dist


Suggested change

composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle --prefer-dist

composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle

Fixed - removed --prefer-dist from composer command. (d35a971)

When building modern applications, you often need to make HTTP requests to external APIs. This article demonstrates how to make HTTP requests in Yii3 applications using Guzzle with and [PSR interfaces](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/).

Updated the opening sentence with proper formatting and PSR link. (d35a971)

+For creating PSR-7 requests and responses manually, you can install PSR-17 factories:
+
+```shell
+composer require guzzlehttp/psr7 --prefer-dist


Suggested change

composer require guzzlehttp/psr7 --prefer-dist

composer require guzzlehttp/psr7

Removed --prefer-dist from the PSR7 installation command. (d35a971)

+composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle --prefer-dist
+```
+
+### Install PSR factories (optional)


This is not optional for our examples. Do in the same step as guzzle itself.

Merged installation steps - PSR7 is now installed together with Guzzle in the same section since it's required for the examples. (d35a971)

+        $stream = $this->streamFactory->createStream($jsonData);
+
+        $request = $this->requestFactory->createRequest('POST', 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users')


Use example.com instead.

Changed to example.com. (d35a971)

+    ResponseFactoryInterface::class => HttpFactory::class,
+    StreamFactoryInterface::class => HttpFactory::class,
+    UriFactoryInterface::class => HttpFactory::class,


This is problematic since there could be non-guzzle implementation of PSR-7 used already. Is there a better way?

Updated DI configuration to use factory functions instead of direct class references, making it clear which PSR-7 implementation is being used and allowing easier switching between implementations. (d35a971)

Add a note that this feature isn't part of PSR interfaces, so the code will depend on Guzzle explicitly.

Added a note explaining that async functionality isn't part of PSR interfaces and requires Guzzle explicitly. (d35a971)

@copilot please fix comments.

All review comments have been addressed in commit d35a971. The article now uses proper composer commands, correct PSR ordering, example.com URLs, improved DI configuration, and includes necessary clarifications about Guzzle-specific features.
