PHP with Laravel on IBMi

Hi All

We are relatively new to PHP and have been building a few applications in
just PHP - no frameworks.

And at this stage have been quite happy with the results.

We initially ran the Zend server from IBM and have recently installed the
Community edition from Alan Sieden.

I am trying to understand what benefits we would get by adding Laravel to
the mix ?

This is not something I have knowledge about and am trying to find ...
well what does it actually do. I have watched some utube videos and read
a number of documents but I think I am more confused now!

So what am I asking ...

Is anyone using Laravel with PHP on IBMi and if so why ?

What benefits can I get from Laravel ? or for that matter is there another
framework that would be recommended with PHP on IBMi ?

Can you recommend any resources - documents, videos that I may be able to
get a better view or why I might want to use it ?

Thanks

Don
