Laravel Beyond Basics : Mastering App Architecture
This 4-day Laravel training course is designed for developers who already have foundational experience with Laravel and are ready to deepen their skills in building robust, scalable, and production-ready applications. Through a combination of hands-on labs, real-world case studies, and guided exercises, participants will work with a fully functional Laravel application built on the Chinook dataset, simulating a realistic development environment.
The course covers essential backend topics including advanced authorization, role-based access control using Spatie Permissions, real-time and multi-channel notifications (email, database, SMS via Twilio), background job processing with queues and events, and comprehensive caching strategies. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with practical knowledge to implement secure, performant, and maintainable Laravel applications in a team or enterprise setting.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will be able to :
- Set up and configure a Laravel application using a pre-built project with an existing database schema (Chinook), including environment configuration, migrations, and seeding.
- Implement advanced authorization techniques using Laravel’s Gate and Policy systems to secure application logic based on user actions and data ownership.
- Build and manage role-based access control (RBAC) using the Spatie Permissions package to assign roles, define permissions, and protect routes, views, and backend logic accordingly.
- Integrate Laravel's multi-channel notification system, sending notifications via email, database, and SMS (using Twilio), including queuing and event-based triggers.
- Design and implement event-driven architecture using Laravel Events, Listeners, and custom Jobs to decouple logic and handle background tasks.
- Configure and manage queue workers to handle asynchronous processing, including error handling, retries, and deployment strategies for queue-based systems.
- Leverage Laravel’s caching system to improve performance, using strategies like query caching, view/component caching, tag-based caching, and cache invalidation.
- Manage user sessions and persistent data storage effectively, with emphasis on session drivers, flash messaging, and multi-tab behavior.
- Apply performance and scalability best practices through structured exercises and a final mini-project that combines caching, queueing, and RBAC into a real-world workflow.
- Gain confidence in building production-ready Laravel applications that are secure, efficient, and maintainable for team collaboration and enterprise-level deployment.
