What is Laravel development?

Laravel development is the work of building web applications using the Laravel PHP framework. It covers custom business systems, SaaS platforms, APIs that power mobile apps, ecommerce stores, internal dashboards, and enterprise software. Laravel handles routing, authentication, database access, queues, real time events, and testing, so engineering teams can ship production grade software much faster than writing raw PHP. The framework is open source, MIT licensed, and runs over 1.5 million live websites today.
