If you are wondering about some of the best PHP frameworks,
then we would recommend Laravel. Many of top websites are built in 2017
are based on Laravel. With 33,356 stars on GIT till date, it is among
the most popular PHP frameworks.
1) Developing an authorization and authentication systems :– Each web application
owner wants to integrate role based application. Where users using the
application should be authenticated and they can view and access the
content based on their role. While developing this requires a lot of
efforts, Laravel makes authentication and authorization development very
straightforward. It is easy to develop and understand. The framework
also provides a manageable way of organizing authorization logic as well
as control resources access.
2) Object Oriented Concepts :–
An important point which makes Laravel the popular PHP framework it is,
is has Object Oriented libraries and many other pre-installed ones,
which are not found in any other admired PHP frameworks. One of the pre
-installed libraries is the Authentication library. In spite of the fact
that it is easy to implement, it has many significant features, such as
checking active users, bcrypt hashing, password reset, CSRF (Cross-site
Request Forgery) protection, and encryption.
3) Artisan :– The key
feature which Laravel offers is a built in the tool named as Artisan. A
developer has to usually interact with the Laravel framework using a
command line that creates and handles the Laravel project environment.
Laravel provides the fitting tool for command-line called Artisan. This
tool allows us to perform the majority of those monotonous and tiresome
programming tasks that most of the developers avoid performing manually.
4) MVC :– Additionally,
the reason which makes Laravel the supreme PHP framework is, it
supports MVC Architecture like Symfony, ensuring accuracy between logic
and presentation. MVC helps in improving the performance, allows better
documentation, and has multiple built-in features.
5) Application Security :–
Nowadays, the importance of application security has emerged as a
leading factor for companies. While developing an application everyone
has to use some or the other ways to make the application secure.
Laravel takes care of the security inside its framework. It uses salted
and hashed password, which means that the password would never be saved
as plain text in the database. It uses Bcrypt hashing algorithm for
generating an encrypted representation of a password. Laravel uses
prepared SQL statements which make injection attacks improbable. Along
with this, Laravel provides a simple way to escape user input to avoid
user injection of the <script> tag.
6) Database Migration :-
Developers are always in dilemma, how to keep the database in sync
between development machines. With Laravel database migrations, it seems
a doodle. After the long work hours, you may have made a lot of changes
to the database and, in my opinion; MySQL Workbench is not a great way
to sync databases between development machines. Instead, use Laravel
Migrations. As long as you keep all of the database work in migrations
and seeds, you can easily migrate, the changes, into any other
development machine you have. This is yet another reason which makes
Laravel the supreme PHP framework.
7) Profound Tutorials (Laracasts) :–
Developers need to keep learning and evolving his/her knowledge
constantly. Unlike others (Codeigniter, Yii, CakePHP etc.) Laravel
offers Laracasts which features a mix of free and paid video tutorials
that show you how to use it. The videos are all made by Jeffery Way, an
expert and master instructor. He seems to have his finger on the pulse
of the essentials and offers clear and concise instructions. The
production quality is high, and the lessons are well-thought out and
meaningful.
8) Blade Templating Engine :-
Blade is a simple, yet powerful templating engine provided with
Laravel. Unlike other popular PHP templating engines, Blade does not
restrict you from using plain PHP code in your views. In fact, all Blade
views are compiled into plain PHP code and cached until they are
modified; meaning Blade adds essentially zero overhead to your
application.
9) Unit Testing :–
Developers also like Laravel in the way it greases the wheel for Unit
testing. Laravel is built with testing in mind. Testing with PHP UNIT is
reinforced and included out of the box, and a PHPUnit.the XML file is
already setup for your application. The framework also ships with
convenient helper methods allowing you to expressively test your
applications. Additionally, it performs several tests to make sure that
any new update made by a developer does not unexpectedly break anything
in the application.
10) Caching :– Caching is one of the important aspects of web development.
Laravel provides a unified API for various caching systems. It makes it
easy for us to switch out how we want to cache to be generated. It is
extremely easy for us to switch out the drivers. The cache configuration
is located at config/cache.php. Laravel supports popular caching
backends like Memcached and Redis out of the box.
In Conclusion
Development of a web application is an
alloy of common and creative tasks. Fine developers like to do all these
common work (repeating from project to project) in as little time as
possible (without loss of quality) before starting to write custom
functions. Web frameworks are tools that make it easier to solve regular
tasks quickly with the point to focus faster on own application’s logic
(creative tasks).
Not all frameworks are able to solve
each of the described problems equally well. The Supreme web frameworks
such as Laravel help developers to do it and this means that
Laravel-based development will make software delivery on time and
cost-effective. Besides, Laravel is scalable. Also, it is not a problem
finding new developers as this framework is well liked.
