## What it is
Laravel Zap is a calendar and scheduling package for Laravel that lets any Eloquent model manage availabilities, appointments, blocked times, and custom schedules. It computes bookable slots from availability minus appointments and blocked periods, with rich recurrence patterns.

## Use cases
- add appointment booking to a Laravel app
- manage doctor availability and patient bookings
- schedule employee shifts
- book meeting rooms without double-booking
- define recurring working hours for any resource
- check if a time slot is free before booking

## When to choose
- you're building a Laravel application that needs booking or scheduling
- you want recurring availability rules (weekly, monthly, ordinal weekdays) out of the box
- you need conflict detection and bookable slot computation tied to Eloquent models

## When to avoid
- your project is not Laravel/PHP
- you need a standalone calendar UI component rather than a scheduling backend
- you need full calendar sync with Google Calendar or Outlook

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: scheduling, date-time, orm
- domain: web-development, backend, developer-tools
- platform: php
- tags: laravel-package, calendar, appointment-booking, availability, recurring-events, eloquent, laravel, web-server
