## What it is
The official documentation repository for the Laravel PHP web application framework, published at laravel.com/docs. It covers installation, configuration, routing, Eloquent ORM, queues, testing, frontend integration, and AI-assisted development with Laravel Boost.

## Use cases

- learn blade templating syntax
- set up laravel with ai coding agents

## When to choose
- you are developing with the Laravel framework and need authoritative reference material
- you want to learn Laravel or onboard a team to it
- you need version-specific upgrade and release notes for Laravel

## When to avoid

- you want runnable code or a starter template rather than prose documentation
- you need offline docs for a framework you don't use
