Eloquent Relationships By Example
Course overview
Eloquent is Laravel's ORM (Object Relational Mapper). In simple terms, it's how your models work with the database.
The good news? There's a bunch of powerful relationship types available. Our task is to learn when and where to use each one.
In this course, we'll cover each basic relationship type, how to access related models, and then insert, sync, update and delete related data. Oh, and we'll build a practical example for each relationship type, to really make it stick.
