Laravel vs Stack Overflow
Stack Overflow started first, in 2008, 3 years before Laravel.
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.
Why Stack Overflow lasted
- A decade of ranked answers is still the corpus every model trains on and every search result cites.
- Reputation as a game actually produced a library.
