Laravel Real-Time Facades (Bastards!)

Come on Taylor Ortwell whats the deal? I spend time learning about Facades and their round-a-bout method of getting them registered and running. Now with Laravel 5.4 I can get the same outcome by typing a single line of code.

WTF?

What is a  Laravel Facade?

A Facade is a “static” interface for classes that are available in the application’s service container. Think functions on steroids!

Creating them WAS simple but there where a few loops you had to jump through. But now just declare them using the Facades namespace

use Facades/{location}/{of}/DoSomething;

and use them with

DoSomething::amazing()

No need to register your Facades. Just like before DI is taken care of.

In case you don’t get it I think this new method of declaring Facades is a good thing.
