Internal Library
Laravel Rapid Development Toolkit
Eliminate boilerplate. Ship faster. Stay consistent.
Overview
A reusable internal toolkit built on top of Laravel to accelerate the development of custom business applications by eliminating repetitive CRUD implementation and enforcing a consistent architecture across all projects.
The Problem
- CRUD interfaces rebuilt from scratch for every module
- Manually re-implementing validation, search, and REST APIs
- Repeated setup for roles, permissions, and file handling
- Slower delivery timelines due to boilerplate overhead
- Inconsistent implementations drifting across projects
- Reduced focus on actual business logic
The Solution
A base model-driven system where extending a single core class automatically enables a full suite of built-in features. By simply extending the base model, each entity instantly supports CRUD operations, configurable features, and a consistent structure across the entire application.
class Product extends BaseModel
{
// columns that are searchable
protected $searchable = ['name', 'sku'];
// columns shown on the index listing
protected $indexFields = ['name', 'price', 'stock'];
// file columns, stored automatically in the configured disk
protected $files = ['image'];
// register API routes for this model
protected $hasApiResource = true;
// register admin routes for this model
protected $hasAdminResource = true;
}
Minimal configuration enables a fully functional CRUD module with search, API endpoints, and UI support. Not all features are shown here — this is a private project.
Capabilities
Auto CRUD Generation
Prebuilt create / read / update / delete flows with override support for custom business logic.
File Management
Built-in file upload and storage handling, abstracted away from each module.
Import / Export
Standardised data import and export functionality available out of the box.
Search & Filtering
Configurable searchable columns defined directly on the model — no query boilerplate.
Dynamic Index Views
Define which fields appear in listing pages via model configuration, not view files.
Roles & Permissions
Access control available out of the box, integrated into every generated route.
Before / After
- Build CRUD logic for every module individually
- Manually implement validation, search, and APIs
- Repeated setup for roles, permissions, and file handling
- Only implement business-specific logic
- Core features available instantly via model extension
- Consistent structure enforced across all modules
