Useful for microservices
- app responsible for one specific function
- email, data processing, etc
Lumen still uses:
- homestead
- .env
Artisan exists with a limited feature set
- No serve, key:generate, tinker, env, down, vendor:publish
- make ONLY has make:migration
Facades and Eloquent disabled by default. AuthServiceProvider as well. (No sessions in RESTful APIs)
Routing is very similar. Tests are as well.
Still has migrations, seeders, middleware.
Views no longer in Lumen 5.2 - not super difficult to add them back in
Consistent interface for output
Transforms object into JSON structure for output
Slides will be posted later, look for it.
