Some frequently asked questions for you

What is ORCHID?

ORCHID is a package for Laravel which helps with the administration of the application on Laravel, allowing you to write code as you want, control of routing/themes/plugins/etc - none of this and will not be! The package only gives a good set of tools that will be in demand in almost every project.

Is it necessary to use the built-in recordings?

We assume that most of your records will be stored in json, which will allow you to do the translation and the universal structure, but if the rails have goals like a CRM system with harsh conditions, then of course you can use the classic CRUD yourself, orchids will not stop you.

Are there any additional system requirements from Laravel?

Yes, you need a PHP extension for image processing and support for json type your database.

How much does it cost?

ORCHID is free, but we appreciate donations.
