The Laravel Ecosystem
summary
Claims that the Laravel ecosystem delivers download to deploy developer happiness by pairing concrete tools: Homestead for production‑like VMs, Forge to provision servers, Envoyer for zero‑downtime deployments, Lumen for microservices, Elixir for asset compilation and cache‑busting, Cashier+Stripe for billing and Spark for SaaS scaffolding. Describes a cheap continuous‑delivery hack (run tests on a Forge droplet then ping Envoyer) and totals a working stack at about $30 a month, with examples of what is built and how it runs.
