'''Laravel''' is a [[open-source software|free and open-source]] [[PHP]]-based [[web framework]] for building web applications.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Laravel Introduction: A PHP Framework for Building High-End Web Applications |url=https://www.w3schools.in/laravel/intro |access-date=2024-03-27 |website=www.w3schools.in |archive-date=March 27, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240327112438/https://www.w3schools.in/laravel/intro |url-status=live }}</ref> It was created by [[Taylor Otwell]] and intended for the development of web applications following the [[model–view–controller]] (MVC) [[architectural pattern]] and based on [[Symfony]].

== History ==
Taylor Otwell created Laravel as an attempt to provide a more advanced alternative to the [[CodeIgniter]] framework, which did not provide certain features such as built-in support for user [[authentication]] and [[authorization]]. Laravel's first [[beta release]] was made available on June 9, 2011, followed by the Laravel 1 release later in the same month.
On September 5, 2024, Laravel announced that they had received $57 million in [[Series A round|Series A]] funding from [[Accel (company)|Accel]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://blog.laravel.com/accel-invests-57m-into-laravel | title=Accel invests $57M into Laravel Products & Open-Source Framework | access-date=March 5, 2025 | archive-date=February 24, 2025 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250224171400/https://blog.laravel.com/accel-invests-57m-into-laravel | url-status=live }}</ref>
== Framework history ==
Laravel 1 included built-in support for authentication, [[Language localisation|localisation]], [[Model (MVC)|models]], [[View (MVC)|views]], [[Session (computer science)|sessions]], routing and other mechanisms, but lacked support for [[Controller (MVC)|controllers]] that prevented it from being a true [[Model–view–controller|MVC]] framework.<ref name="maxoffsky" />
Laravel 2 was released in September 2011, bringing various improvements from the author and community. Major new features included the support for controllers, which made Laravel 2 a fully MVC-compliant framework, built-in support for the [[inversion of control]] (IoC) principle, and a [[Web template system|templating system]] called ''Blade''. As a downside, support for third-party [[Software component|packages]] was removed in Laravel 2.<ref name="maxoffsky" />

Laravel 5 was released in February 2015 as a result of internal changes that ended up in renumbering the then-future Laravel 4.3 release. New features in the Laravel 5 release include support for scheduling periodically executed tasks through a package called ''Scheduler'', an abstraction layer called ''Flysystem'' that allows remote storage to be used in the same way as local [[file system]]s, improved handling of package assets through ''Elixir'', and simplified externally handled authentication through the optional ''Socialite'' package. Laravel 5 also introduced a new internal [[directory tree]] structure for developed applications.<ref name="packt-essentials" />{{rp|13–14}}<ref>{{Cite web | url = http://laravel-news.com/2015/01/laravel-5/ | title = Laravel 5 | date = January 30, 2015 | access-date = May 10, 2015 | author = Eric Barnes | website = laravel-news.com | archive-date = November 11, 2016 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20161111191329/https://laravel-news.com/2015/01/laravel-5/ | url-status = live }}</ref>

New LTS versions were planned for one every two years.<ref>{{Cite web | url = https://laravel-news.com/2015/06/laravel-5-1-released/ | title = Laravel 5.1 is released | date = June 9, 2015 | access-date = June 14, 2015 | author = Eric L.
