Generate Complete Application Modules with a Single Command using Laravel TurboMaker

Last updated on January 28th, 2026 by Yannick Lyn Fatt

Laravel TurboMaker is a package designed to supercharge your development workflow by generating complete CRUD and API modules from a single Artisan command. Created by Jean-Marc Strauven, the package generates models, migrations, controllers, routes, tests, views, policies, and more—all following Laravel conventions and best practices.

Basic Usage

Generate a complete module with all associated files:

php artisan turbo:make Post

Sample Turbomaker command output — Sample output from the Turbomaker Artisan command

For API-only generation with tests and policies:

php artisan turbo:api Product --tests --policies

You can also define relationships directly from the command line:

php artisan turbo:make Comment --belongs-to=Post --belongs-to=User

Schema-Based Generation

For more complex projects, TurboMaker supports YAML-based schema definitions. First, create a schema with your field definitions:

php artisan turbo:schema create Product --fields="name:string,price:decimal,description:text"

The schema file will be generated in resources/schemas/product.schema.yml, a sample of which looks similar to this:

fields:
  name:
    type: string
    nullable: false
  price:
    type: decimal
    nullable: false
  category_id:
    type: foreignId
    nullable: false
relationships: []
options:
  table: products
  timestamps: true
  soft_deletes: false
metadata:
  version: '2.0'
  description: 'ModelSchema-powered schema for Product'
  created_at: '2026-01-26'
  engine: 'ModelSchema Enterprise'

Further edits can then be made by following the many field types and options outlined in the Schema System Documentation.

Then generate the module from that schema:

php artisan turbo:make Product --schema=Product

Customizations

To customize the default behaviors, publish the package's configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=turbomaker-config

You can also publish and modify the stub templates as well:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=turbomaker-stubs

Whether you're prototyping a new idea or scaffolding features for a larger project, TurboMaker can speed up the repetitive parts so you can focus on the interesting ones. Check out the GitHub repository for full documentation and more examples.
