Laravel 6 : Building a REST API with Lumen

#laravel #lumen #restapi

Introducing Lumen from Laravel
Lumen is a new project from Laravel creator Taylor Otwell. It's a "micro-framework", meaning it's a smaller, faster, leaner version of a full web application framework. PHP has two other popular micro-frameworks, Slim and Silex.

Lumen has the same foundation as Laravel, and many of the same components. But Lumen is built for microservices, not so much for user-facing applications although it can be used for anything.

Though this tutorial is about Lumen, a simple understanding of how Laravel works is all you need to follow along. You can check the git repository from here Rest api with lumen
