 install and run `phpcs` on your computer. This is a step in our Travis CI
 build as well, but it is better to catch errors locally.
 
-You will need to install `phpcs` version 2.9.x, because the 3.x versions are
-not yet compatible with the WordPress coding standards. For more information see
-[this issue](https://github.com/WordPress-Coding-Standards/WordPress-Coding-Standards/issues/718).
-
-The easiest way to get `phpcs` is to download the .phar archive from the latest
-2.9.x release on GitHub:
-[PHP\_CodeSniffer releases](https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/releases).
-
-For example:
-
-```sh
-wget \
- https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/releases/download/2.9.1/phpcs.phar \
- -O ~/bin/phpcs
-chmod +x ~/bin/phpcs
-```
-
-(If `~/bin` is not in your `$PATH`, pick another directory that is.)
-
-Then you must install the `WordPress-Coding-Standards` repository and tell
-`phpcs` where it lives. See instructions here:
-
-https://github.com/WordPress-Coding-Standards/WordPress-Coding-Standards#standalone
-
-You should now be able to run `phpcs` from the root directory of this project.
+The easiest way to do this is using `composer`.
+[Install `composer`](https://getcomposer.org/download/)
+on your computer, then run `composer install`. This will install `phpcs` and
+`WordPress-Coding-Standards` which you can the run via `vendor/bin/phpcs`.
