## What it is
A Laravel package that adds multilingual support to Eloquent models by storing translations in a separate database table. It transparently fetches and saves translated attributes alongside the model, with fallback locale support and validation rule helpers.

## Use cases
- store translations of eloquent models in the database
- build a multilingual laravel application with translated model attributes
- retrieve a model's title in the current or a specific locale
- sort and query models by their translated fields
- migrate existing single-language columns to a translation table
- validate translated form fields with locale-aware rules

## When to choose
- you use Laravel/Eloquent and need database-backed translations for model attributes
- you want translations saved and fetched automatically with the parent model
- you need fallback locales, locale helpers, and translation-aware validation out of the box

## When to avoid
- you only need to translate static UI strings (use Laravel's built-in localization files)
- you are not using Laravel or Eloquent
- you need full-page or full-entity content translation via external services

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: orm, internationalization, database
- domain: web-development, databases
- platform: php
- tags: eloquent, multilingual-models, translations, laravel-package, fallback-locale, localization, laravel
