Because if we have many sites with Flarum make it more better and help the Dev to fix and improve things, and most of people not familiar with composer,
here the basic tutorial how to install Flarum with composer:
1- Make sure you can access to SSH. if you can't ask your Host to active it. or use your Cpanel.
2- login to your site via SSH with this command: ssh username@yourdomain.com , then hit enter
3- Now you will see [Password: , enter your password now , will not see your pass just keep going and hit enter when you done.
4- when you see this command username@yourdomain.com [~]# , congrats you in.
5-check if you have composer in your machine by this command 'php composer.phar' if you have it you will see lines :
username@yourdomain.com [~]# php composer.phar
