Laravel is the most popular PHP framework, known for elegant syntax, powerful ORM (Eloquent), and a rich ecosystem. It handles routing, authentication, queues, email, file storage, and testing out of the box. Laravel makes PHP development genuinely enjoyable.

How Laravel Works

Laravel brought modern development practices to PHP: dependency injection, migrations, Artisan CLI, Blade templates, and a thriving package ecosystem (Livewire, Inertia, Breeze). It's the PHP equivalent of Rails — productive, opinionated, and batteries-included.

Key Concepts

  • Eloquent ORM — Laravel's ActiveRecord ORM — $user = User::where('active', true)->first() reads like English
  • Blade Templates — Template engine with sections, layouts, and components — clean PHP template syntax
  • Artisan CLI — Command-line tool for generating code, running migrations, managing queues, and more

Laravel vs Django?
