Summary

Till now, we have created RESTful web services endpoints in a micro-framework named Lumen. We created migrations, models and routes. I implemented PostController but left CommentController implementation for you. So, as we can see that lot of problems that we discussed related to implementation in Chapter 3, Creating Restful Endpoints, are solved already because of using a framework. And we are able to solve many other problems very easily. So, using the right framework and packages, we are able to work much faster.

We have also identified some missing elements, including user authentication. We will solve them in the next chapter. In the next chapter, we will improve our work from the code aspect as well.

Note

In this chapter, we were mostly working with Lumen. We looked at it but we were trying to proceed to make our API and so we were not able to see each and every part of Lumen and its code in detail. So, it is a good idea to see Lumen's documentation: https://lumen.laravel.com...
