many mature frameworks have good standards. For php you can look at any code base that adbides by PSR standards and get good code.

Not only that but laravel is in a mature space where the problems are already solved. Its basically reinventing the wheel.

Im not surprised that Laravel is written cleanly but I hate its API. It reminds me of the bloat of Zend but with an obnoxious artsy style added to it.

Im an engineer not an artisan.
