Examination question sets and coding challenges are developed and peer-reviewed by a global team of Laravel practitioners. CFL is community-driven (100+ contributors worldwide) with a structured review process to ensure every question is:

  • Accurate for the latest targeted Laravel version
  • Unambiguous (clear wording, no “gotcha” answers)
  • Practically relevant to real-world Laravel development
  • Aligned to the intended level (Junior / Mid / Senior / Artisan)
  • Supported by correct code samples and verified solutions

This community model ensures the certification validates competencies that matter in production Laravel work, architecture decisions, framework fundamentals, and day-to-day problem solving.

Since 2018 CFL has certified 3500 Laravel developers (as of 2025).
