Study Notes
Laravel Eloquent
- Eloquent is an object-relational mapper (ORM) that makes it enjoyable to interact with your database.
- Each database table has a corresponding "Model" that is used to interact with that table.
- Eloquent models allow you to retrieve, insert, update, and delete records from the table.
Configuring the Database
- Before using Eloquent, configure a database connection in your application's config/database.php configuration file.
- For more information on configuring your database, check out the database configuration documentation.
Laravel Bootcamp
- Laravel Bootcamp walks you through building your first Laravel application using Eloquent.
- It's a great way to get a tour of everything that Laravel and Eloquent have to offer.
