We'll be in touch with your CMStack for Laravel early access.
01 Why this stack
Laravel 11 ergonomics. Speed from the schema up.
CMStack for Laravel pairs a mature, expressive framework with a database used the way it was designed - so the fast path is also the natural one.
01
PHP 8.3 + Laravel 11 performance
PHP 8.3 JIT and fibers reduce per-request overhead. Laravel 11's slim application skeleton means less framework weight before your code even runs.
02
Mature ecosystem & tooling
Composer, Artisan, Laravel Pint and PHPStan give you a complete, battle-tested toolchain - not one assembled from unrelated packages.
03
MySQL 8 FULLTEXT search
Full-text search is powered by MySQL 8 native FULLTEXT indexes - no external search service, no indexing lag, no extra infrastructure to run.
04
Direct Eloquent access
Core features read and write through Eloquent directly. No plugin-driven N+1 accumulation - every query is intentional and owned.
05
Gates & policies for granular permissions
Authorization is built on Laravel's gate and policy primitives - every action is guarded at the framework level, not bolted on afterward.
Built natively on Laravel idioms - not a port from another stack, but a CMS that feels like Laravel all the way down.
02 Features
The complete CMS feature set - in Laravel terms.
Every CMStack edition ships the same core features; this one is built natively on Laravel idioms, not adapted from another stack.
Content
Pages, posts, categories, tags and menus - the full editorial model, queried through Eloquent with eager loading to keep N+1 away.
Media library
Upload, organize and serve images and files through a managed media library backed by Laravel's filesystem abstraction.
Comments & moderation
Threaded comments with a moderation queue - approve, reject or flag submissions from a single interface.
Roles & permissions
Granular, per-action authorization using Laravel gates and policies - every role sees exactly what it should.
Runtime themes
Switch themes at runtime without a redeploy; Laravel's view layer resolves the active theme transparently.
Plugins & hooks
A hook and event architecture built on Laravel's event system - extend the core without forking it.
Full-text search
MySQL 8 FULLTEXT indexes power search across content - native, fast, and zero extra services to manage.
Multilingual + hreflang
Author content in multiple languages with correct hreflang signalling for search engines.
SEO built in
Open Graph, JSON-LD, sitemaps, robots.txt and llms.txt generated out of the box - no plugin needed.
Social login
Sign in with Google, GitHub, Facebook or LinkedIn via Laravel Socialite.
reCAPTCHA v3
Spam protection on all public forms with reCAPTCHA v3, wired directly into Laravel's validation pipeline.
MCP server
A built-in MCP server lets AI clients manage your Laravel site through a typed, permissioned interface.
03 Quickstart
Up and running with one command.
The Laravel repo ships a Makefile that bootstraps the full environment - Docker does the heavy lifting.
