Get your complete Laravel backend.”** --- ✨ What is Laravel ReverseKit? ----------------------------- [](#-what-is-laravel-reversekit) Laravel ReverseKit is a **rule-based scaffolding package** that generates your entire Laravel backend from a JSON structure—**no AI required**. It’s perfect for: - Rapid API prototyping - SaaS apps and microservices - Learning Laravel conventions - Reducing repetitive CRUD boilerplate **Core Idea:** Reverse your development workflow. Instead of writing controllers → responses, define your response first, and let ReverseKit generate the backend. --- ⚡ Features ---------- [](#-features) FeatureDescription**Zero AI Dependencies**Pure PHP, no external APIs required**Complete Scaffolding**Models, Controllers, Resources, Requests, Policies, Factories, Seeders, Tests**Smart Type Inference**Detects types from JSON values**Relationship Detection**`hasMany` and `belongsTo` from nested structures**Customizable Stubs**Modify templates for your coding standards**Preview Mode**See what will be generated without writing files**Multiple Input Sources**JSON, API URL, OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, Database**Interactive Mode**Step-by-step generator prompts for full control--- 💾 Installation -------------- [](#-installation) ``` composer require shaqi-labs/laravel-reversekit ``` > Note: GitHub username has changed, but the Packagist package name remains the same.
