I'm not sure what you're looking at... but it does resemble laravel quite a bit to me.. the way relations are setup is almost identical laravel: public function resources(){ return $this->belongsToMany('App\Resource'); } Adonis: posts () { return this.hasMany('App/Model/Post') } The routes/middleware page seems even closer to laravel 5's, that's all I've looked through so far, but it does look interesting at least as far as frameworks go, though I'd wait a bit before putting anything into production on it, till it gains some more momentum.
