Laravel even more then rails and django comes with pretty much everything you need for modern web dev built in. Full auth system, feature and unit test infrastructure, background jobs, push notifications integrated with a scalable third party websocket service, integrated with vuejs, webpack wrapper and more. It also has a prebuilt development VM that has supporting services such as mysql and redis or you can use various docker solutions for that. There is also excellent laracasts video course platform with free series on getting started with laravel and there is also codecourse video casts that has examples of full blown websites built with laravel
