Packages for Laravel in 2022

Packages for Laravel in 2022

There are thousands, if not hundreds, of Laravel Packages to pick from. This makes it difficult for inexperienced developers to find the proper package for their requirements. I’ve been working with Laravel since 2016, and I’ve used a lot of packages along the way, and I’ve learned how to pick the right package for the job. Have you ever wondered which package is the most popular? The data-backed list can be seen below.

Jetstream

Jetstream is a Laravel starter kit with authentication scaffolding built in. It is designed with Tailwind CSS and interactive with Livewire. Fortify is also used for authentication.

Jetstream is the way to go if you need a handy Authentication scaffolding with extra features like Team and Two-factor authentication.

Laravel Breeze

Jetstream comes with a lot of features that you may not use all of the time. Breze is the appropriate bundle for you if you want a package that comes with easy authentication scaffolding. It is not dependent on Livewire or any other javascript framework, and it provides a clean and easy authentication system similar to Laravel UI.

Laravel-permission by Spatie

When you construct a web application, you almost always include an admin panel so that the client may manage some basic functions on their own. This is when the multi-tenancy functionality comes into play. We can do it ourselves, but if you’re a novice looking for a scalable way to handle multi-tenancy, Spatie’s Laravel-Permission Package is a good place to start. This package lets you handle database user permissions and roles. Every permission will be kept as a Gaurd in this package, which you can utilise in your blade file.

Laravel Sanctum

So far, we’ve seen packages for authentication scaffolding and authorization, but what if you’re building an API and want to use stateless authentication? Laravel Sanctum is the next item in our series. For SPAs (single page applications), mobile apps, and basic, token-based APIs, Laravel Sanctum provides a lightweight authentication solution.

Laravel Medialibrary by Spatie

We can use this package to associate files with Eloquent models. It has a straightforward, fluent API to work with. If you’re working on a Laravel CMS or CMS-like web application, this package could save you a lot of time.

Laravel Debugbar

The Laravel Debugbar is a tool created by Barry vd. Heuvel is a software that helps you to keep track of your application during development swiftly and effortlessly. The Debugbar package is one of the cornerstone packages for Laravel, with a simple installation and robust capabilities. It enables you to track and debug all requests from the Laravel view. You can also keep track of SQL queries, Mail, and queues. In short, it’s a must-have debugging tool.

Socialite

Have you ever used Facebook, Google, or Github for authentication? If you answered yes, you are aware of the difficulty in getting it to function. Don’t fear, Laravel Socialite will come to your rescue. This package allows you to use Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, GitHub, google, GitLab, and Bitbucket for authentication. (Do you really need anything else?)

Bagisto

Bagisto is an open-source Laravel eCommerce package that has grown in popularity among the Laravel community. It includes features such as user administration, multi-warehouse inventory management, and more. The package includes a user-friendly admin panel with features like multi-currency, localization, access control levels, multi-channel, payment integration, and more.

Laravel Meta Manager

Laravel Meta Manager is the finest package if you want to manage the SEO of your Laravel application properly. It can handle all of your on-page SEO chores. It recommends meta tags that will help you achieve a higher SERP ranking.

Laravel AdminLte

Without Laravel adminLTE, creating a dashboard would have been difficult. AdminLte is an open-source bootstrap dashboard template with a lot of pre-built components including login, registration form, chart, graph, and so on. These are components that are responsive, reusable, and widely utilised.

The best thing about the Laravel AdminLte package is that it doesn’t require any additional dependencies outside Laravel core, so you can get started on your admin panel right away. The package includes a customizable blade template as well as advanced menu setting options.

Conclusion

We developers have a strong desire to create everything on our own. It’s a good thing, but as the saying goes, “never do what has already been done.” Who said I made it up? The point is that you can use these packages if necessary. If you use packages, you are not a terrible developer; rather, you value your time.
