I am new in laravel. Everytime I am writing code in different classes of laravel I can see there is a keyword Illuminate. I cannot understand what is the use of it.
Illuminate is the namespace Laravel choose to put their code in. The word Illuminate means to light-up something. By using Laravel you are illuminating PHP development experience in their terms, hence the name. That's it; just a namespace.
Illuminate is Laravel's database engine minus Laravel. It comes bundled with the Eloquent ORM in Laravel. If you would like to build your PHP apps with ORMs and prefer not to use Laravel, this tutorial is for you.
Illuminate is located in /vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate .
Laravel ships with many facades which provide access to almost all of Laravel's features. Laravel facades serve as "static proxies" to underlying classes in the service container, providing the benefit of a terse, expressive syntax while maintaining more testability and flexibility than traditional static methods.
