A growing list of well built open-source apps in Laravel
Sometimes, it would be interesting to see what you can build using your favorite framework. This is especially useful when you’re in the phase of selecting a framework for your next project.
Open-source projects can be useful since you can dive deep into the code and see how people have solved similar problems. And since these projects are open-source, you can also contribute to them and learn from the community.
Here’s a condensed list of some open-source applications that are built using Laravel. I’ll be updating this list as and when I come across new ones. So, let me know if you know of any other open-source projects that you think are worth adding to this list in the comments. Oh! by the way, this Twitter(X) thread inspired me to write this article.
