Laravel Streams is an open-source system of interconnected packages which provides fundamental application standards like data modeling, an API, user interface, and more.
Our primary mission is to abstract and standardize data in a way that maximizes openness and accessibility and radically minimizes overall technical debt in using it.
The ever-changing and widening landscape of web applications, websites, and the like, have stressed the traditions and ideology of popular CMS options. After digging into our own CMS engine we discovered that the problem is in the CMS paradigm. This project results from the complete deconstruction of that paradigm and establishes a new one built upon new fundamental values and principles.
Laravel Streams is well suited to build a wide variety of applications:
Laravel Streams focuses primarily on basic JSON descriptions of your data. We call them streams.
// streams/music.json
{
"name": "Music",
"fields": {
"id": "slug",
"title": "string",
"mp3": "file",
"artist": {
"type": "relationship",
"related": "artist"
}
}
}
By default, Laravel Streams leverages a flat-file database engine. All databases supported by Laravel are inherently supported. An adapter interface allows you to tap into any data source you need.
By building upon data structure, we can use stream configurations to help drastically reduce the time required to do things like:
Laravel Streams focuses on abstracting these fundamental areas of application development.
