Composer manages a project's external library dependencies and their versions — every modern PHP framework, Laravel included, is built on top of it, not alongside it.
A component becomes genuinely reusable through its public API — @Input/@Output for data, and content projection (ng-content) for letting the parent supply arbitrary markup, not just values.
Anything slow that doesn't need to finish before the response is sent — an email, a report export, a third-party API call — belongs in a queued job, not inline in the request.

A facade is a static-looking proxy to an object resolved from the service container — three pieces (the underlying class, the facade class, and a binding) that all have to line up.

How to scaffold, argument/option-flag, and register a custom php artisan command — including the one config step people forget when it does not show up in the command list.
