laravel-hashids VS Laravel-Zero

Have been using https://github.com/vinkla/laravel-hashids as the models/database tables still have numeric id's for various other systems/scripts that already use the same database.

if you don't use the full uuid, then it won't be unique, right? You'd be better off using https://github.com/vinkla/laravel-hashids or something that hashes based on the id

Originally I considered using Laravel Zero but I think web views could play a role in the future such as an admin page to allow non-technical people to restart commands, etc.

Another Redditor pointed out https://laravel-zero.com which can build a standalone app, PHAR file. https://laravel-zero.com/docs/build-a-standalone-application

The app is based on Laravel Zero by u/nunomaduro, and it uses Termwind to render the release notes to console with styling and clickable links.

Hmm, since you're familiar with Laravel, you could give a try with Laravel Zero. It's based on Laravel (actually, this is stripped version of Laravel), and provides the bare bones for CLI apps.

We won't use specialised frameworks like Minicli or Laravel Zero because the goal is not so much to focus on features but to better understand the development, testing, and distribution phases of command-line programs.

I've been using Laravel Zero for quite sometimes, mostly writing simple application to do the ETL, migration purpose related - from one database type to another.
