Baum Laravel Package

Baum is a Laravel package for working with nested sets, a model that stores hierarchical data in a flat database table using left and right bounds. It lets you build and query tree structures—categories, menus, comment threads—with a single table and no recursive queries.

It integrates with Eloquent, adding tree-aware methods to your models while keeping migrations and scopes consistent.

• Create, move, and delete nodes while bounds stay automatically maintained
• Query ancestors, descendants, siblings, and children directly
• Retrieve full trees, root nodes, and leaf nodes efficiently
• Rebuild or validate trees to recover from corrupted bounds
• Works with any Eloquent model via a simple trait
