Participate in the Annual State of Laravel Survey

The annual State of Laravel 2026 community survey is officially open for responses. Hosted by Laravel News, this survey collects benchmark data from tens of thousands of developers worldwide to map ecosystem growth, framework trends, and tooling preferences.

Key Focus Areas for 2026

This year’s survey explores several major shifts across the Laravel ecosystem:

• Laravel 13 & PHP 8.4 Adoption: Upgrades, adoption blockers, and performance gains reported across production applications.
• Frontend Stacks: Comparative usage rates between Livewire 3, Inertia.js (Vue 3 / React), traditional Blade components, and hybrid mobile solutions like NativePHP.
• Application Runtimes & Deployment: Transition rates towards FrankenPHP, Laravel Herd Pro, Docker containers, and serverless architectures like Laravel Vapor.
• AI Integration: How developers are utilizing the official Laravel AI SDK, local LLM integrations, and AI coding agents inside their teams.

How to Take the Survey

The survey takes approximately 5 minutes to complete and is completely anonymous. Aggregated survey results and interactive charts will be published next month.
