Laravel Sharp
Laravel 10+ Content management framework
Sharp is a content management framework, a toolset that provides help to build a CMS section in a website, with some rules in mind. The public website should not have any knowledge of the CMS, the CMS is a part of the system, not the center of it. In fact, removing the CMS should not have any effect on the project. Content administrators should work with their data and terminology, not CMS terms. I mean, if the project is about spaceships, space travels, and pilots, why would the CMS talk about articles, categories, and tags? Developers should not have to work on the front-end development for the CMS. Because life is complicated enough, Sharp takes care of all the responsive / CSS / JS stuff. -

Laravel Installer
The Laravel application installer
Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. A web framework provides a structure and starting point for creating your application, allowing you to focus on creating something amazing while we sweat the details. Laravel strives to provide an amazing developer experience while providing powerful features such as thorough dependency injection, an expressive database abstraction layer, queues, and scheduled jobs, unit and integration testing, and more. There are a variety of tools and frameworks available to you when building a web application. However, we believe Laravel is the best choice for building modern, full-stack web applications. Before creating your first Laravel project, make sure that your local machine has PHP and Composer installed. If you are developing on macOS or Windows, PHP and Composer can be installed in minutes via Laravel Herd. In addition, we recommend installing Node and NPM. -
