🔥 Laravel Tip: Skip find() + if — Use findOrFail() Instead

🔥 Laravel Tip: Skip find() + if — Use findOrFail() Instead

A small change that makes your Laravel code cleaner and more reliable.

Why findOrFail()?

✅ Less code to write
✅ Automatically throws a 404 response
✅ Cleaner controllers
✅ Follows Laravel best practices

This is one of those features that seems small, but after using it consistently, your controllers become much easier to read.
