The #group:developer+profile”>State of Laravel 2024 Results show a huge problem in Laravel. 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 all show 95.47% or higher of Laravel devs with a gender identity of male.
That’s staggering – and I know tech is bad. Quick googling shows around 28% of people in tech are women. Less than 5% in the Laravel space. And sure there is probably something to be said about responder bias to the survey…
But, more shocking to me is that there is no real discourse on this.
I think Laravel does a good job with docs. I’ve found it extremely useful for many projects, but there is something very wrong here.
