LaraDumps is a modern, feature-rich debugging tool that makes PHP development a breeze.

When using LaraDumps, the outcome of your debug dump is presented in a separate desktop application rather than in your browser or command-line interface, ensuring that your application flow remains uninterrupted.

LaraDumps goes beyond dumping variables. In addition to functions similar to dump() and dd(), LaraDumps provides tools for validating JSON, searching for substrings, clocking execution time, and a convenient way to view phpinfo() output.

Among other functionalities, you can debug Livewire/Volt components and inspect Eloquent Models, Collections, and Stringable classes. LaraDumps also integrates with Pest PHP, assisting you while writing tests.

The desktop application can monitor and display SQL queries and slow queries, logs, exceptions, mail, executed jobs, authorization gates, Artisan commands, scheduled commands, cache, and much more...

Here's an example of LaraDumps ds() debug function in the project's home page route.

Route::get('/', function () {
    ds('Home page accessed!');
    return view('home');
});

PHP 8.2+ and Laravel 11.0+.

For PHP projects that are not built on Laravel, please refer to the laradumps/laradumps-core repository.

Please take a moment to check our installation page at our documentation website.

LaraDumps is a free open-source project, and it was inspired by Spatie Ray.
