What is the difference between the Session::set and Session::put methods in Laravel? The docs only covers Session::put, but I have seen set used instead.

Sessions are used to store information about the user across the requests. Laravel provides various drivers like file, cookie, apc, array, Memcached, Redis, and database to handle session data. By default, file driver is used because it is lightweight. Session can be configured in the file stored at config/session.
The correct syntax for this is: Session::set('variableName', $value); For Laravel 5.4 and later, the correct method to use is put : Session::put('variableName', $value);
The session configuration is stored in config/session. php . Be sure to review the well documented options available to you in this file. By default, Laravel is configured to use the file session driver, which will work well for the majority of applications.
They are exactly the same. Session::put directly calls Session::set.
The only difference, is that Session::put allows you to pass it an array of [key => value] pairs, in which case it calls Session::set for each of them.
These methods are defined in Illuminate\Session\Store
