Build your own Laravel packages without the ceremony.
A family of Laravel packages by the team at Simtabi. Modern PHP, pure Composer
tooling, no surprises.
Every Laravel package starts with the same hour of ceremony: a service provider,
config publishing, migrations, command registration. laranail removes that hour.
package-tools gives you a fluent package builder in the tradition of
spatie/laravel-package-tools, then goes further — attribute-driven discovery,
a built-in health check, SBOM generation, and dependency audits against OSV.dev.
The scaffolder turns one command into a publish-ready package.
We build every one of our own packages with it, so the family keeps growing: console foundations, database utilities, type-safe enums, licensing, environment tooling, and installers.
| Package | What it does |
|---|---|
package-tools |
The runtime base — fluent Package builder, attribute discovery, and doctor/sbom/audit/ide-helper commands |
package-scaffolder |
Artisan commands and stubs that scaffold a new package in one step |
toolkit |
A security-first Swiss-army toolkit — utilities, traits, middleware, macros, feature modules |
console |
Rich console output plus a prompts-and-forms layer with validators |
db-tools |
Standalone database utilities — UUID/ULID traits, schema macros, soft-archive, backup and restore |
Beyond the core: database administration
(db-console and its
db-console-webui), licensing
(license-kit,
license-verifier,
demo-mode,
product-updater), environment
tooling (env-kit), installers
(installer-headless,
installer-web), and type-safe
enums (enumerator). Browse
all repositories for the full
family.
