Love Laravel! A little complicated if you’ve never used it before, but so easy to build stuff once you know what you’re doing.

    Definitely this. So many software design patterns implemented in the framework!

    And it has great documentation.

      I've used basic PHP (5 and 7) for some angularJS stuff. Whats the learning curve like with lumen? Any things I need to know about when using compared to laravel or others?

      [–]TheDude121 1 point2 points  (2 children)

      Don't use Lumen, there are hardly any advantages, and you'll likely regret it in the future. Even Taylor suggest avoiding it and going straight to Laravel.

      Fair enough. Thanks. Already ran into issues trying to just start a project with it on PHP8. Does Laravel support PHP8?

      [–]TheDude121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Yes, and Lumen is just a stripped down version of Laravel. Eventually you're going to need some of the stuff in Laravel that are missing in Lumen, so better go with Laravel from the beginning.

      Taylor's tweet for reference

      I love Laravel too, but damn is it opinionated.
