    Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) notifications channel for Laravel

    • This ties in great to game development. Laravel makes it dead easy to send notifications via Discord, Email, SMS or several dozen other options as well.

  • Ratchet

    Asynchronous WebSocket server (by ratchetphp)

    • You can do native websockets with PHP, but it's not straightforward with Laravel. Laravel Echo helps handle the client-side of websockets, but you need to manage the server side on your own.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
