laravel-packager VS laravel-debugbar

I’ve been doing it this way for the past 6 years, super-convenient. I use https://github.com/Jeroen-G/laravel-packager for the workflow above, it’s basically just two commands.

Laravel Packager

Check out laravel-packager. It can do most of the stuff automatically for you.

debugbar And n+1 query

tldr using debugbar is a good point, everything else is just use laravel when using laravel and avoid n+1 problem

Nice but I can get the same functionality with the debugbar - what makes this better?

We then used platform-specific performance analysis tools to determine which of these endpoints needed the most attention. The highest-traffic sites we needed to optimize used Laravel, a popular PHP framework. We used Laravel Debugbar to analyze those web apps.

Try installing laravel-debugbar, it will show you which parts of the app are slow (e.g. boot up vs views), which queries are slow, and how many queries run (helpful when you forgot to eager load some models).

I wanted to tweak Laravel Debugbar, so it could also work with any JSON API, but I ended up writing a minimal package of my own to do the trick.
