FriendlyEnum is a PHP trait used to handle enum fields in Laravel framework in an easy way.

#### The problem it solves

[](#the-problem-it-solves)

You create an enum field in the migration file with user states for example. As the system is developed you also need the values in the views, in Form Requests / validators and many other places. Now a change is needed in the system to support one more state. Good luck remembering in each place that you need to change. This package tries to solve this problem.
