Laravel Collection Playground Laravel 5.x+

Laravel's Illuminate\Support\Collection class provides a fluent, convenient wrapper for working with arrays of data. It offers a wide variety of methods for manipulating and transforming data, similar to JavaScript's array methods or functional programming utilities.

Collections are immutable — each operation returns a new Collection instance rather than modifying the original. This makes them predictable and easy to reason about.

1. Enter your data — Paste a JSON array in the input area. Each object should have the same structure with consistent keys.
2. Choose an operation — Select from map(), filter(), pluck(), sortBy(), groupBy(), unique(), or chunk().
3. Configure parameters — Depending on the operation, you may need to specify field names, values, or sizes.
4. Run and inspect — Click "Run Operation" to see the result and the equivalent Laravel PHP code.
