Lara Dashboard is a production-ready Laravel admin panel and headless CMS — a batteries-included Laravel boilerplate / starter kit with Users, Roles, Permissions (RBAC via Spatie), Modules, Settings, Translations, Posts & Pages, Media Library, REST API, MCP server for AI agents (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code), AI content generation, and a WordPress-style hooks system (via eventy) for extensibility.

Built for Laravel developers who want to ship admin dashboards, SaaS apps, CRMs and internal tools in hours, not weeks — without trading away Laravel idioms, testability or type-safety.
