Since each chapter is devoted to the design of a different application, there is no need to read the book in any particular order. Instead, you can pick and choose the blueprints that are of most interest to you and dive right in.This book is for intermediate to advanced level PHP programmers who want to master Laravel. It’s assumed that you will have some experience with PHP already. This book is also for those who are already using a different PHP framework and are looking for better solutions.
