Laravel Herd

Pro Feature

Blazing fast debugging

Herd Pro gives you a powerful interface to help you watch and collect your debug information.

All of your application's dump() and dd() calls will be beautifully formatted and can be filtered from Herd's separate Dump window.

Just keep using dump() as usual – we will take care of the rest.

Route::get('/', function () {
    dump(config('app.name'));
    dump(auth()->user());
});
