Event Manager Laravel Package

Product Decisions This Supports

• Enables event-driven architecture for decoupled component interactions (e.g., user registration triggers emails, payment processing updates order status)
• Supports roadmap goals for scalable, reactive features without tight coupling between business logic layers
• Build vs. buy: Avoids reinventing the wheel with a mature, Doctrine-backed solution validated across 6k+ projects
• Critical use cases: Audit logging, real-time notifications, and cross-module workflows where loose coupling is required

When to Consider This Package

• When building modern PHP 8.1+ applications requiring a lightweight, type-safe event system
• When integrating with Doctrine ecosystem components (ORM, DBAL) where seamless compatibility is critical
• When needing simple synchronous event dispatching without complex async/queue requirements
• Avoid if: using legacy PHP versions (<8.1), requiring advanced pub/sub features (e.g., message brokers), or preferring Symfony's heavier EventDispatcher for enterprise-scale projects
