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.
