## What it is
A community-maintained guide of Laravel coding best practices, covering topics like single responsibility principle, fat models/skinny controllers, validation, and Eloquent usage. It is a documentation-style resource translated into many languages rather than runnable software.

## Use cases

- how to structure laravel controllers and services
- eloquent vs query builder guidance
- team coding standards for laravel projects

## When to choose
- you are a Laravel developer wanting idiomatic, maintainable code patterns
- you need a checklist for code reviews or onboarding new Laravel developers

## When to avoid

- you work with frameworks other than Laravel
