🚀 95% Faster Laravel Development - Meet LAC!

Introduction

As Laravel developers, we frequently encounter these recurring development tasks:

• Creating models, controllers, services, and request classes

• Setting up routing

• Writing validation rules

• Defining model relationships

• Importing test data

While these tasks are essential for development, they require significant time investment for repetitive work. In web development beyond Laravel, adding new resources involves similar repetitive processes, leading to these challenges:

1. Substantial time investment in non-business logic code creation

2. Quality variations due to different coding styles among developers

3. Potential errors from manual work such as configuration oversights and typos

To address these challenges, I developed Laravel Arsenal Core (LAC).

LAC implementation helps achieve the following:

• ✅ Significant speed improvement - Up to 95% reduction in development effort for common tasks

• ✅ Consistent code quality - Auto-generation based on Laravel best practices

• ✅ Reduced manual errors - Minimized manual configuration requirements

What This Tool Can Do

LAC is a toolkit that automates repetitive tasks in Laravel development while maintaining consistent code quality and substantially improving development speed.

Main Features

1. Comprehensive CRUD Scaffolding

• Automatically creates Service and View files in addition to Laravel's standard capabilities

• Generates complete CRUD framework following RESTful API patterns with seamless file integration

2. Automatic Route Synchronization

• Generates optimized routes based on your controller structure

3. Excel Table Integration

• Reads database structure from migration files and creates Excel templates for streamlined data import

• Simple one-command data import using the generated templates

4. Automatic Model Relationship Generation

• Analyzes migration files and creates appropriate model relationships

5. Automatic Validation Synchronization

• Generates validation rules based on your migration column definitions

Architecture Design Philosophy

LAC is based on the following design principles:

1. Service Layer Pattern Adoption

   • Clear separation of business logic from controllers

   • Enhanced testability and improved separation of concerns

2. Streamlined Controller Design

   • Controllers focused on input validation and service calls

   • Improved readability and maintainability

3. Unified Project Structure

   • Ensures consistency in team development

   • Accelerated onboarding for new team members

Efficiency Improvements

⏱️ Development Time Comparison [Per Resource (Example: Product CRUD)]

Complete the same work in just 5 minutes with these commands!

php artisan lac:scaffold Product     # Main processing
php artisan lac:sync-routes          # Route synchronization
php artisan lac:sync-model-rel       # Relationship synchronization
php artisan lac:sync-validations     # Validation synchronization

• Manual implementation time: 102 minutes (approximately 1 hour 40 minutes)

• LAC execution time: 5 minutes

• Time reduction: Up to 95%

Benefits by Project Scale

Calculation Details

• Time saved per resource: 97 minutes (approximately 1.62 hours)

  • Small (3 resources): 1.62 hours × 3 = 4.9 hours

  • Medium (10 resources): 1.62 hours × 10 = 16.2 hours

  • Large (20 resources): 1.62 hours × 20 = 32.3 hours
