Laravel 5 has established itself as one of the best PHP rapid application development frameworks. Come learn about all the tools in the Laravel ecosystem designed to save you time and prevent you from writing the boring cruft you have to write for every application. We'll cover getting started with local development, building a basic application, and deploying to production. We'll review how Laravel easily handles vagrant, testing, oauth login services, billing and subscriptions services through Laravel Spark, and deploying your application with services such as Laravel Envoyer and Forge to manage your servers.
