The php-http/guzzle6-adapter is a comprehensive tool that equips developers with the ability to integrate and use the Guzzle 6 HTTP client with PHP. It serves as a bridge enabling compatibility between Guzzle 6 and PHP 8, facilitating streamlined and efficient web-based operations. It must be noted, however, that while this adapter supports PHP 8, the Guzzle 6 itself isn't tested on that version.
