Laravel, for the rest of us.
Laravel is one of the world’s most popular web frameworks, but to many outside the developer community, it can feel like magic.
Laravel for the rest of us makes that magic understandable.
Written for founders, product managers, project leads, and anyone working alongside a development team, this book explains what Laravel is, why teams choose it, and how it powers modern digital platforms.
From open source and security to hosting, APIs, and managing technical teams, Pete Heslop, Managing Director of Steadfast Collective and an official Laravel Partner, offers clear explanations and real-world examples to help you confidently lead Laravel projects.

All profits from this book are donated to Larabelles, a community supporting women and non-binary people in tech.
Laravel for the Rest of Us treats Laravel the way we always try to treat it ourselves: as a practical tool that helps people just get stuff done. It shows the value of the ecosystem, the strength of open source, and the importance of clear communication between technical and non-technical roles.
I am glad this resource exists, and I hope it helps you see why so many developers and organizations continue to bet on Laravel.
