Laravel PHP Framework is based on MVC (Model View Controller) architecture so it is quite organized. In my opinion, it is easier to learn than other frameworks out there. The recommendation will also be based on what front end is being used. For example, if the front end is jQuery then Laravel PHP Framework is a good choice but if the front end is built on React or Next then I would hesitate to recommend Laravel PHP Framework.
