Usa laravel: up & running: a framework for building modern php apps
2nd edition
this is not the first book about laravel, and it won’t be the last. i don’t intend for this to be a book that covers every line of code or every implementation pattern. i don’t want this to be the sort of book that goes out of date when a new version of laravel is released. instead, its primary purpose is to provide developers with a high-level overview and concrete examples to learn what they need to work in any laravel codebase with any and every laravel feature and subsystem. rather than mirroring the docs, i want to help you understand the foundational concepts behind laravel.
laravel is a powerful and flexible php framework. it has a thriving community and a wide ecosystem of tools, and as a result it’s growing in appeal and reach. this book is for developers who already know how to make websites and applications and want to learn how to do so well in laravel.
