larastan VS psalm-plugin-laravel

Larastan is a Coding Standards Fixer tool, It's a PHPStan wrapper for Laravel. Larastan focuses on finding errors in your code. It catches whole classes of bugs even before you write tests for the code.

Static analysis or Laravel-lovers

Static Analysis Tools - there are a number of tools that help you to manage code style (PHPCS, PHP-CSFixer, and a new one, Laravel Pint), as well as tools to analyse the "correctness" of your code (Psalm, PHPstan, in particular LaraStan).

https://github.com/nunomaduro/larastan should help with this specifically

New 0.7.3 release includes a rule that can check Laravel Octane compatibility of your application. It basically automates the things mentioned in the official docs. You can give it a try now! And let me know what do you think!

again, not trying to get into a symfony vs laravel debate, but you can do static analysis https://github.com/nunomaduro/larastan

Psalm is a static analysis tool for PHP. Much like PHPStan is to Larastan, Psalm has a plugin called Laravel Psalm that allows you to easily use it in Laravel projects.

Thanks. Num.2 is this about https://github.com/psalm/psalm-plugin-laravel or applicable to other projects? Num.3 - isn't that how it is now?

Also disagree with the static analysis take - we have dozens of Laravel applications that pass Psalm's static analysis with the strictest settings. All it takes is the Laravel plugin and some DocBlocks here and there.

Psalm v3 came with a new plugin framework that makes authoring integrations for third party packages much easier. That, with Barry's IDE Helper made the Laravel Plugin a reality according to Matt.
