Laravel Prompts is a lightweight, zero-dependency toolkit for building polished, interactive command-line experiences in PHP—now first-party in Laravel 12. The article breaks down prompt types (text, password, select, multiselect, confirm, search, progress/spinners), how validation and keyboard navigation work out of the box, and shows a practical Artisan “seeder generator” wizard that guides model selection, record counts, relationships, presets, and safe handling of existing data.
