Foreman – scaffolding your Laravel applications

Published on by

Brian Webb:

Foreman is a Laravel application scaffolding tool that automates common tasks you typically perform with each new Laravel app you create. The directives you want Forman to perform are outlined in a JSON based template file.

This seems like a neat utility. Brian shows a more real world example in this gist and I created one for my common front end tooling.

The one thing I noticed is just how fast this installed the base app. I haven’t been using the laravel.phar and this make me realize what I’ve been missing1.

Overall this is an impressive tool and I can see a lot of potential in it.

  1. I’m assuming these are the same under the hood.
