Is using of blank function perferable now on laravel 10 site ?

@petrogromovo It’s just a function. Use it if it makes sense to use it.

which seems replacement of php methods

The function is:

    function blank($value)
    {
        if (is_null($value)) {
            return true;
        }

        if (is_string($value)) {
            return trim($value) === '';
        }

        if (is_numeric($value) || is_bool($value)) {
            return false;
        }

        if ($value instanceof Countable) {
            return count($value) === 0;
        }

        return empty($value);
    }
}
