What is laravel???
Laravel is an MVC web-development framework written in PHP. It has been designed to improve the quality of your software by reducing both the cost of initial development and ongoing maintenance costs, and to improve the experience of working with your applications by providing clear expressive syntax and a core set of functionality that will save you hours of implementation time.
Laravel
has been designed to target the sweet-spot between minimalism and
functionality. It's
easier to
understand smaller code bases and Laravel is all about implementing solutions
in a way
that is
clean, simple, and elegant. Long-time PHP developers will find many aspects of
Laravel
familiar as it is an evolution of the PHP development frameworks that
have come before it.
Most
of these frameworks use the Model-View-Controller
(MVC) paradigm or
design
pattern. If you have used one of the aforementioned tools or the MVC pattern,
then you will find it
quite easy to get started with Laravel 5.
