Hi there,
Once you’ve made the change to the composer.json file, did you also run
composer updateto update your lock file too?Besides that, the composer.json looks correct.
Best,

Hello there,
When using PHP apps in the App Platform we recommend using Composer to configure them. This would allow you to specify GD Library in your composer.json file and have it installed.
If the composer is set to include the GD option then it should pull the image with it enabled. If the composer isn’t an option you can use a Dockerfile instead and have it install the GD library during the build process.
To install PHP GD you would need to use Composer with your app to specify that version.

Hi @saif0909,
If you are using a standard Droplet, you can install the GD library with yum or apt. What PHP version you need to install the GD library for?
