Product Decisions This Supports

Standardizing Laravel project scaffolding across teams and repositories, reducing “works on my machine” drift.
Build vs. buy (or adopt): Use this open-source CLI (MIT) instead of maintaining an internal scaffolding script; low cost, community-backed.
Onboarding & developer experience roadmap: A single command to generate a consistent starter kit shortens time-to-first-commit for new engineers.
CI/CD and tooling decisions: The PHAR release enables reproducible, dependency-free execution in pipelines and local environments, which supports automation and governance.
Feature/roadmap validation: The help command and PHAR distribution lower the barrier to trial, making it easier to pilot with a small team before broader rollout.

When to Consider This Package

Your team uses Laravel/PHP and wants a repeatable, opinionated starter kit.
You need to reduce boilerplate setup (auth, config, folder structure) and enforce consistency across projects.
You want a lightweight CLI that can be distributed as a PHAR (no Composer global install required) and run in CI.
You value an MIT-licensed dependency with minimal legal/procurement friction.
Look elsewhere if: you do not use Laravel; you require deep customization beyond the starter kit’s opinions; you need enterprise support/SLAs; or your security policy prohibits executing third-party PHARs.

Executives: An MIT-licensed CLI that standardizes Laravel project setup, reducing onboarding time and setup errors at effectively zero license cost. The PHAR release makes it easy to distribute and audit.
Engineering leaders: Adopt as a baseline for new Laravel services to enforce consistency and cut repetitive setup work. The help command and PHAR packaging improve discoverability and CI reproducibility; dependency updates signal active maintenance.
Security/Procurement: MIT license removes licensing friction; PHAR distribution requires standard third-party binary review. No breaking changes in v1.0.2—safe to pilot.
