Synopsis

Harness the power of the Laravel ecosystem to bring your idea to life.

In this book, Michael Akopov shares his experiences creating software solutions that can not only survive but thrive.

Since 2011, Laravel has revolutionized how PHP developers work by providing tools that just work, take care of routine tasks, and boost productivity. Concurrently, it's fostered an ecosystem of packages, libraries, tools, companies, and solutions that tackle challenges common to web applications, share solutions, and collaborate around the world. This approach allows you to focus on what really matters to make your idea stand out without wasting time on already-solved problems.

An overview of this ecosystem has been sorely needed. I'm thrilled to see Michael provide a survey of the Laravel world so that developers can learn more about the variety of tools available to them.
