Laravel 4.0 Released
- stormpat 13y agoAs of now the official 4.0 docs are still on http://four.laravel.com/ http://four.laravel.com/
- Kiro 13y agoHow does this compare to other PHP frameworks?
- diggan 13y agoIt's very easy to get going with and to learn. It has good documentation (available here[0] for version four) and the code is filled with comments if the documentation isn't enough. It uses "Eloquent ORM" which makes it so easy to handle data with Active Record. RESTful controllers makes it easy to handle the request. And much more, which is why you need to read the documentation to understand why it's different. [0] http://four.laravel.com http://four.laravel.com
- kyriakos 13y agomy take: - easy to use / learning curve is not steep - very well documented - contains the basics (no do-it-all overblown class library like Zend)
- wesley 13y agoEasier to develop for thanks to the great syntax, but unfortunately slower than everything except symfony.

- bgaluszka 13y agoPersonally I like to follow coding standards when writing app in given framework, so I always start with looking at what they look like and I find that very often there is something that I personally find off e.g. in lavarels case they use tabs for indentation or classes have braces in the same line as class name, but not methods. Other than that project looks great!
- T3RMINATED 13y agoI dont understand... L4 follows the standard... your standard however must be off. Also PHP-Fig has recommended tabs over spaces.
- Narretz 13y agoI really liked the static method shortcuts Laravel has for almost everything. Too bad it's almost as slow as Symfony, because it uses so many of it's (great) components.
- dan1234 13y agoDoes anyone have any benchmarks? I've only made a couple of sites using Laravel but I actually really like it and haven't hit any performance bottlenecks yet.
- peterarmstrong 13y agoThere's also a Laravel 4 book released today. It's Laravel: Code Bright (https://leanpub.com/codebright https://leanpub.com/codebright) by Dayle Rees, a member of the Laravel core team. It's the featured book on the Leanpub homepage (https://leanpub.com/ https://leanpub.com/) right now, and it's doing really well. (Disclosure: Leanpub cofounder here.)
- T3RMINATED 13y agothe Minimum is too expensive... i got the Jeff book instead... thkx however :)
- peterarmstrong 13y agoYeah, I forgot to mention https://leanpub.com/laravel-testing-decoded https://leanpub.com/laravel-testing-decoded which is an oversight on my part! Laravel 4 is #1 and #2 on Leanpub for the past week, just because of today!
- kyriakos 13y agokinda expensive but i guess price will drop since it just got released :)
- hmart 13y agoAnother book released today: Laravel Testing Decoded, by Jeffrey Way - https://leanpub.com/laravel-testing-decoded https://leanpub.com/laravel-testing-decoded
- T3RMINATED 13y agoThe fonts are very hard to read on the webpage, how to fix this? maybe text-rendering will help?
- codedungeon 13y agoIf you haven't tried Laravel 4, now is the TIME!
- T3RMINATED 13y agoNo HTML::script :(
- krapp 13y agoI never liked html-generating methods anyway (it makes escaping more difficult) so personally i'm quite happy if there are fewer of them.
