Laravel Application Development Cookbook

Laravel is fundamentally changing the PHP web development landscape. Laravel is bringing the paradigm shifts that PHP developers have been craving; it is ideal for quickly creating highly performant, robust applications. By providing developers with tools for automating tasks, including database schema modification, CRUD operations, and testing, we're able to reduce our workload, application complexity, and human error.

Laravel Application Development Cookbook will guide you through all the key aspects of Laravel starting from installation, authentication, and testing, finishing with the deployment and integration of third parties in your application.

Laravel Application Development Cookbook will get your development and coding environment set up to be very efficient, so that you can focus on writing great code and not have to worry about issues not related to your applications. Finally, you will see some ways to get Laravel to automatically do some work for you, so you'll be able to extend our application in very little time.

Then you will begin with setting up your own authentication system, and move on to using third party authentication in your Laravel app.
