It's served many of us well over the years, but more and more I've been finding my time stretched thin. As such, I am not able to put in as much focus here in development, documentation, and everything else that goes along with maintaining an open-source package. I can't in good consience leave this as is when so many of you are still using and maybe running in to some issues with things. As an alternative, I highly recommend Spatie's [laravel-permission](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-permission) package as a replacement. It's nearly a drop-in replacement as both Shinobi and laravel-permission hook in to Laravel's core policies system. The Spatie package is well maintained, has great documentation, and a plethora of configuration options. If for any reason you'd like to continue or pick up where Shinobi has left off, please feel free to fork and do your thing ✌️ that's one of the beauty's of open-source.
