New book on how Laravel works under the hood. Looking for volunteer reviewers 🙏

Hi everyone,

I've been working on something for a few months, and I'm finally excited to share it here. I wrote a book about how Laravel actually works internally; the idea is that you build a mini Laravel from scratch, piece by piece: the service container, service providers, facades, the request lifecycle, the router, middleware, and the query builder to Eloquent.

Right now it's in the final review stage with me. Before I wrap it up, I'd love to get more eyes on it from people who really know the framework.

So I'm looking for a few volunteers who'd be up for reviewing it. It's completely volunteer-based; if you enjoy digging into Laravel's internals and want to help make the book better, I'd genuinely appreciate it.

If you're interested, you can inform me via the official website book: https://laravelinternals.com/

Thanks so much, and happy to share details more via email.
