Laravel 11 Cookbook: Proven workflows, solutions and techniques to build, deploy, and monitor Laravel applications (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789349174351)

This book is packed with hands-on recipes that will empower you to overcome any real-world challenge you face when building, debugging, and deploying Laravel applications. There are so many advanced routing and controller patterns to explore, from dynamic URL parameters to resource controllers and custom JSON APIs. You'll be amazed at how your application responds precisely to user requests.

You'll implement Laravel Breeze for user authentication, craft RBAC with middleware, add social logins via Socialite, and enforce two-factor authentication with Fortify against unauthorized access. With server-side validation, you can create custom validation rules with clear feedback, centralize exception handling, and set up real-time error monitoring with Laravel Pulse. You'll also learn to automate critical workflows-configuring queue drivers and background jobs, retrying failed tasks, scheduling recurring operations, and backing up databases and media. Once you do, you'll be able to automate analytical reporting, from custom shell scripts to scheduled generation of performance-insight summaries. And you'll tie it all into Laravel's Scheduler and Linux cron.

In this book, you'll find ready-to-use solutions to the scenarios you face day to day. Whether you're dealing with broken migrations, N+1 queries, authentication gaps, missing alerts, or sluggish jobs, this book has you covered. It addresses the most common pain points in Laravel development without claiming to cover every possible edge case. Instead, it gives you proven recipes that let you focus on building features, confident that you have reliable fixes at your fingertips.
