Laravel/Telescope is a refined debug assistant specifically designed for the Laravel framework. It provides users with profound insights into the requests coming into their application. It's an ideal tool for monitoring exceptions, log entries, database queries, queued jobs, mail, notifications, cache operations, scheduled tasks, and variable dumps. It especially shines as a companion tool for local Laravel development environments, offering an in-depth look into your application's performance and behavior.
To use Laravel/Telescope, you first need to install the package via Composer:
composer require laravel/telescope
After installing Telescope, publish its assets using the telescope:install Artisan command:
php artisan telescope:install
You may need to run migrations after installation:
php artisan migrate
Once installed, Telescope provides a dashboard available at your app’s /telescope path. Access to this path is controlled by the viewTelescope Gate in your AuthServiceProvider.
Laravel/Telescope's official documentation can be found on the Laravel website: https://laravel.com/docs/telescope. The documentation covers further details on installation, configuration, and usage of this comprehensive debug assistant for Laravel applications.
