The internet loves to call PHP dead while Laravel developers are quietly banking real revenue. Building a SaaS is about shipping features that customers actually pay for, not chasing the latest JavaScript micro-framework.
Laravel gives you auth, routing, and database management out of the box so you can focus on the actual business logic. If you want to build a real product and not just a portfolio piece, stop listening to the hype. PHP pays the bills. Pick a reliable tool, master it, and build something useful.

AI is a force multiplier, not a brain replacement. It’s a tool for execution, but the blueprint has to come from a human who understands the specific trade-offs.
The ecosystem is unmatched. Between Forge, Vapor, and Pulse, the developer experience for scaling is miles ahead of many modern frameworks.
Laravel's "batteries-included" philosophy is exactly why it wins for SaaS. Spending weeks configuring auth or queues in other stacks is just lost revenue time.
