MVC Architecture

Laravel follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture pattern, which separates the application's logic, presentation, and data. This makes it easier to manage and maintain the codebase, and allows developers to focus on building the business logic of their application.

Eloquent ORM

Laravel's built-in Eloquent Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) allows developers to interact with databases using PHP syntax, making it easier to work with databases and write efficient database queries. Eloquent also provides a simple way to define relationships between database tables, and to perform advanced queries and transactions.

Artisan CLI

Laravel's Artisan Command Line Interface (CLI) provides developers with a set of powerful tools to automate repetitive tasks, generate boilerplate code, and manage database migrations. With Artisan, developers can quickly create new controllers, models, and views, and execute database commands like migrations and seeding.

Blade Templating Engine

Laravel's Blade templating engine provides developers with a clean and concise syntax for writing templates, making it easier to create and manage complex web pages. Blade allows developers to define reusable components and layouts, and to easily incorporate data from their controllers and models.

Authentication and Authorization

Laravel provides built-in authentication and authorization functionality, making it easy to add user authentication and access control to your application. With Laravel's built-in authentication features, developers can quickly and easily implement user registration, login, and password reset functionality, and can define custom authorization policies for controlling access to specific parts of their application.

Routing

Laravel's routing system allows developers to define application routes using a simple and intuitive syntax, making it easy to create complex routing structures. With Laravel's routing system, developers can easily define RESTful routes, group routes together for easy management, and define route parameters and constraints.

Testing

Laravel provides a robust testing framework, allowing developers to write and run automated tests to ensure that their code is working as expected. Laravel's testing framework allows developers to write unit tests, functional tests, and browser tests, and provides a range of tools for mocking and faking data and services.

Community Support

Laravel has a large and active community of developers, providing a wealth of resources, tutorials, and plugins to help developers build better applications faster. The Laravel community is known for its helpfulness and generosity, and provides a range of resources including documentation, forums, and Slack channels.
