Migration Assistant Credits And Acknowledgements

Migration Assistant is part of the Capell package set. This page names the main frameworks, packages, authors, and services this package leans on, with a short note about what they make possible here. It is intentionally shorter than the repository-wide credits page and closer to the package itself.

Package role: MigrationAssistant export, import, and rollback report workflows for Capell.

  • Laravel, created by Taylor Otwell, gives this package routing, service providers, Eloquent, validation, queues, events, auth, caching, and the normal Laravel testing surface.
  • Filament and the Filament project give this package admin resources, pages, widgets, forms, tables, actions, and panel integration.
  • Composer, Packagist, and GitHub make the package install, split, and release workflow possible. Composer and Packagist deserve a special nod because Capell packages live and update through Composer metadata.
  • Pest, Orchestra Testbench, PHPStan, Larastan, Laravel Pint, and Rector keep this package easier to test, review, and update when bugs are fixed.
  • Capell Admin supplies the Capell-side contracts, surfaces, or runtime that Migration Assistant builds on.
  • Capell Core supplies the Capell-side contracts, surfaces, or runtime that Migration Assistant builds on.
  • Laravel Actions, by Loris Leiva, keeps package behaviour in small action classes instead of burying it in pages, commands, or controllers.
  • Spatie Laravel Package Tools, by Freek Van der Herten and Spatie, keeps service provider setup, config publishing, migrations, and command registration predictable.

Migration Assistant is useful because it treats imports as a workflow. Package reading, mapping, validation, preview, execution state, and rollback reporting can each be fixed without rewriting the importer.

When Migration Assistant adds a new framework, service, or third-party package that becomes part of the user-facing workflow, update this page and the package README together. Credits should explain the practical help we get from a dependency, not just list a package name.
