When using Laravel Framework (5.6), PhpStorm does not recognize methods when accessed via facades like this:
$user = User::find($id);
So it's always complaining that: "Method 'find' not found in User"
I've got the Laravel Plugin & the Barry IDE Helper. What else do I need to do?
From the root of your project in terminal:
composer require --dev barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper
php artisan clear-compiled
php artisan ide-helper:generate
