We all have been introduced to PHP a very long time ago and since then it spread like a wildfire in web development. As a website development company, we know how important is it to make the right choice of framework. A single mistake here can give a developer a really bad hard time. So many companies are now choosing Laravel over core PHP and other PHP frameworks. But first, let’s understand why we are comparing PHP and Laravel, a PHP framework.

Why Compare Laravel and Core PHP?

A framework comprises of different languages, libraries, assets, etc. These frameworks run on a core development language. Laravel here is also a framework based on PHP. So why are we comparing the same thing? Actually, Frameworks, due to its extra edges, makes development easy. One does not have to code everything from scratch. Presets and libraries allow here to make code easy and short. Let go into some deep.

Face-Off Between Laravel and Core PHP

While developing a website, PHP really helps a lot in making it dynamic. Core PHP does not require extra libraries, it can work alone. While on the other hand frameworks can not work without its libraries. And learning core PHP is essential in making a dynamic website. Good knowledge of core PHP can give you an upper hand while working on a Framework.

But Frameworks are not that bad. It saves your time and code line while working on projects. Also understanding someone’s core PHP code is difficult while a framework follows some consistency in coding. This makes easy to understand someone’s work in Framework. Not just that, frameworks also allow several developers to handle a single project very easily.

Reasons Why Laravel is Best:

Authentication: Laravel has sorted everything extraordinarily in the authentication process. Implementation of this simple authentication is also easy in Laravel.

Libraries: Laravel has a big, optimized and few unique collections of libraries that are available in other frameworks. What makes these libraries special is that these are object-oriented.

Artisan: A unique tool that works as a command terminal to control a project. This tool allows a developer to do repetitive and tedious code with ease.

MVC Support: This architecture makes Laravel even better by allowing clarity between presentation and logic and better documentation.

Secure: It uses ‘salted and hashed’ password which means Laravel does not allow a password to save as a plain text in the database.

Database: In other databases, migration is really hectic work. In Laravel, migration is very simple and easy with seeding. As long as you keep all data in migration and seeding, every development machine will have the same data changes.

Engine: Blade Templating engine makes coding and conditioning very easy and convenient in Laravel.

These are the major features that make Laravel one of them a company will always make its way with the best PHP frameworks in the market. For better web development services travel. Currently, it is not just surpassing its cousins but it is also competing with its backbone language.
