Some of the features of Laravel are a modular packaging system with a dedicated dependency manager, different ways for accessing relational databases, utilities that aid in application deployment and maintenance, and its orientation toward syntactic sugar. , Laravel is regarded as one of the most popular PHP frameworks, together with Symfony2, Nette, CodeIgniter, Yii2 and other frameworks.〔 The source code of Laravel is hosted on GitHub and licensed under the terms of MIT License. == History == Taylor Otwell created Laravel as an attempt to provide a more advanced alternative to the CodeIgniter framework, which did not provide certain features such as built-in support for user authentication and authorization. Laravel's first beta release was made available on June 9, 2011, followed by the Laravel 1 release later in the same month. Laravel 1 includes built-in support for authentication, localisation, models, views, sessions, routing and other mechanisms, but lacks support for controllers that prevents it from being a true MVC framework.〔 Laravel 2 was released in September 2011, bringing various improvements from the author and community. Major new features include the support for controllers, which made Laravel 2 a fully MVC-compliant framework, built-in support for the inversion of control (IoC) principle, and a templating system called ''Blade''. As a downside, support for third-party packages was removed in Laravel 2.〔 Laravel 3 was released in February 2012 with a set of new features including the command-line interface (CLI) named ''Artisan'', built-in support for more database management systems, database migrations as a form of version control for database layouts, support for handling events, and a packaging system called ''Bundles''. An increase of the Laravel's userbase and popularity lined up with the release of Laravel 3.〔 Laravel 4, codenamed ''Illuminate'', was released in May 2013. It was made as a complete rewrite of the Laravel framework, migrating its layout into a set of separate packages distributed through Composer, which serves as an application-level package manager. Such a layout improved the extendibility of Laravel 4, which was paired with its official regular release schedule spanning six months between minor point releases. Other new features in the Laravel 4 release include database seeding for the initial population of databases, support for message queues, built-in support for sending different types of email, and support for delayed deletion of database records called ''soft deletion''.〔 Laravel 5 was released in February 2015 as a result of internal changes that ended up in renumbering the then-future Laravel 4.3 release. New features in the Laravel 5 release include support for scheduling periodically executed tasks through a package called ''Scheduler'', an abstraction layer called ''Flysystem'' that allows remote storage to be used in the same way as local file systems, improved handling of package assets through ''Elixir'', and simplified externally handled authentication through the optional ''Socialite'' package. Laravel 5 also introduced a new internal directory tree structure for developed applications.〔 Laravel 5.1, released in June 2015, is the first release of Laravel to receive long-term support (LTS), with planned availability of bug fixes for two years and security patches for three years. LTS releases of Laravel are planned to be released every two years. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Laravel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
