Never Miss a Laravel Release 🚀
The Laravel team released v10.35 with a Blade @use directive, a number abbreviation helper, the ability to generate a secret with artisan down, and more. Here is a bit more info about the new features introduced this week:
Add a Blade @use() directive
Simon Hamp contributed a @use() directive to import a PHP class into a Blade template without using raw PHP tags:
{{-- Before --}}@phpuse \App\Enums\WidgetStatusEnum as Status;@endphp {{-- After --}}@use('App\Enums\WidgetStatusEnum', 'Status')@use('App\Models\Bar') {{ Status::Foo }}{{ Bar::first() }}
Abbreviate a number with the Number::abbreviate() method
@jcsoriano contributed a Number::abbreviate() class to the newly added Number Class, which provides a human-readable abbreviated number:
Number::abbreviate(1_000_000); // "1M"Number::abbreviate(100_001); // "100K"Number::abbreviate(100_100); // "100K"Number::abbreviate(99_999); // "100K"Number::abbreviate(99_499); // "99K"
Add the --with-secret option to the artisan down command
Jacob Daniel Prunkl contributed a --with-secret option to the artisan down command that will generate a secret phrase that can be used to bypass maintenance mode so the user doesn't have to define one themselves:

Add Conditionable trait to the AssertableJson class
Khalil Laleh contributed adding the Conditionable trait to the AssertableJson class, to make it possible to assert based on a given conditional:
// Before$response->assertJson(function (AssertableJson $json) use ($condition) { $json->has('data'); if ($condition) { $json->has('meta'); } $json->etc();}); // After$response ->assertJson(fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->has('data')) ->when($condition, fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->has('meta')) // ...;
