Laravel Sketchpad
Introduction
Sketchpad is an innovative, bolt-on development environment for your existing Laravel site.
It's a place to write, test, experiment and execute code, or just a place to group useful tools and functions you want easy access to.
Overview
Sketchpad provides an alternative structure of controllers, views, assets and routing that lives alongside your main Laravel installation.
You can navigate methods, interactively modify parameters, and even live-reload the code you're working on, all from a friendly UI.
Additional tooling and functionality is designed to make it quick and easy to develop or debug new tools, features and code.
