Power Your SPA with Laravel and PHP

In this session, I'll introduce frontend developers to Laravel and PHP, showcasing its capabilities in enhancing your Single Page Applications (SPAs). Laravel, a mature, feature-rich framework, simplifies building a robust RESTful Web API, saving development time and boosting application scalability. We'll unravel the Eloquent ORM, making database interactions efficient and readable. Learn how Laravel's Queued Jobs enable asynchronous processing, maintaining your SPA's responsiveness by deferring heavy tasks. Finally, we'll delve into PEST - Laravel's Jest-like testing framework. By incorporating PEST, you'll enhance code quality, debugging, and application stability. By session's end, you'll gain a solid foundation in Laravel and its potential to supercharge your SPAs. With Laravel and PHP, let's build powerful, efficient web applications together. Your journey to backend mastery begins here.
