Laravel Docs is the official documentation repository for the Laravel web framework.
The repository serves as the source material for Laravel's online documentation, organized by release version. Contributors submit documentation updates to version-specific branches that correspond to stable releases, while documentation for upcoming releases goes to the master branch. This structure ensures that the published documentation at laravel.com/docs remains synchronized with the framework's actual capabilities and API across different versions.
Developers working with Laravel should use this repository if they need to contribute documentation improvements, report documentation issues, or maintain accurate guides for specific framework versions. The branching model makes it straightforward to document features in the version where they were introduced or modified, which is essential for a framework with multiple supported versions in active use.
The project maintains clear separation between stable release documentation and development-version documentation through its branch strategy, with contributions flowing through pull requests to the appropriate version branch based on whether the change applies to current stable releases or future releases.
