A comment on PHP in 2023. Parent comment

What I'm doing is recreate everything the Laravel way and worry about importing the data (millions of pictures, videos and comments) later. I figured that once I'm proficient at Laravel that writing some import jobs would be relatively easy.

Thanks! That’s happens to be just what I need to do: import pictures and related data.

Does your DB have a classic design? You can very easily map an existing DB with a fresh Laravel install, just write a couple Models, their relationships and you're almost set.

I have been working with Laravel on a daily basis since 6 years and have never felt more efficient with code.

Not sure what you mean by classic, but I designed it manually to be queried with plain SQL. So I suspect the answer to your question is yes.

Thanks for the info!

By classic I mean something somewhat standardized like user table: id, name, email ; post table: id, user_id, content etc.

Pretty much, then, yes.
