Laravel Fractal

The package provides a nice and easy wrapper around Fractal for use in your Laravel applications. If you don't know what Fractal does, take a peek at their intro. Shortly said, Fractal is very useful to transform data before using it in an API. Transforming right from a Laravel collection is particularly useful for Eloquent results. You can transform directly from a Laravel collection as well. There's also a very short syntax available to quickly transform data. Lovers of facades will be glad to know that a facade is provided. You can add methods to the Fractal class using Laravel's Macroable trait. Imagine you want to add some stats to the metadata of your request, you can do so without cluttering your code. You can run the make:transformer command to quickly generate a dummy transformer. By default it will be stored in the app\Transformers directory.
