Should I use "laravelcollective/html": "5.2." instead of "illuminate/html" in my composer.json file going forward with Laravel 5.2

Question

The heading pretty much says it all, I'm just a bit concerned that "laravelcollective/html" might be deprecated in the future for another package. Aren't there form helper methods that are build into the framework like in ASP.NET MVC?

Answer 1

Yes. illuminate/html was abandoned a year ago.

There are no form helpers in the core. illuminate/html was removed from the core and is now maintained by the LaravelCollective (laravelcollective/html).
