Docker vs Laravel

Laravel started first, in 2011, 2 years before Docker.

Why Docker lasted

  • A Dockerfile is a unit of thought. Kubernetes did not replace that noun.
  • Docker Hub plus the desktop app kept developers even after the orchestration wars.

Why Laravel lasted

  • It made PHP feel like a modern framework again: artisan, Eloquent, the docs, the people.
  • Taylor Otwell as a steward plus a conference circuit is a distribution machine.
