# LaraBench

> LaraBench is a free desktop app for Laravel developers. It runs Tinker snippets and Artisan commands against local projects, Docker containers, or SSH servers, with readable output, benchmark tools, logs, an MCP server, and a jobs feed for Laravel.

LaraBench is Laravel-only. The day-to-day workflow is free on macOS, Windows, and Linux. The public website is server-rendered, so the linked pages can be read without executing client-side JavaScript.
