How does it handle architectural patterns?

It advocates for a clean separation of concerns using a Controller -> FormRequest -> Action/Service -> Model architecture, utilizing DTOs for structured data transfer.

Can this skill help with automated testing?

Yes, it provides detailed patterns and best practices for writing feature and unit tests using the Pest testing framework, including dataset usage and mocking.

Is the directory structure compliant with Laravel 11?

Yes, the skill is updated to reflect the streamlined directory structure introduced in Laravel 11, including the simplified routes and config handling.

Does this skill support older versions of Laravel?

While specifically optimized for Laravel 11+ and PHP 8.3+, many of the core principles apply to Laravel 10, though modern features like readonly classes and specific directory structures are version-dependent.

Does it include security guidelines?

Absolutely. It covers API authentication, FormRequest validation, Policy-based authorization, and secure data handling such as UUID usage and encryption.
