Laravel - If, how and why you should use it!
summary
Framework evaluation and hands‑on demo claim Laravel gets projects from zero to production quickly and scales from small sites to enterprise services used across an organization, with built‑in tools like Artisan, Tinker, Laravel Mix, queues, service providers and event listeners. The team deploys via Forge/Vapor, uses migrations and testing (one project reports 98% coverage), but hit performance limits in BI work—Laravel collections were reimplemented and a custom ORM replaced Eloquent after tests showing 1,000,000 items at ~250ms. Version 6 brings semantic versioning.
