Laravel is good and bad for the ecosystem at the same time. I've interviewed a lot of people lately who know laravel but not php. Similarly to people who claim they know react but fail in the most basic js questions.
- thinkindie 6y agoAdditionally Laravel abuses patterns like singletons and in general static methods. This is really a no-no for modern PHP, in my opinion. I think Symfony had a way better impact on the ecosystem.
- deergomoo 6y agoTo be fair, Laravel’s facades look like static method calls, but they’re actually not. They’re backed by the service container and can be swapped out for mocks etc just as easily as injected dependencies. They’re also totally optional, and in general are falling out of fashion within the community.
