Building a social platform with Laravel? Let us review it.
Expert code review for social platforms built with Laravel. We fix Laravel-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Laravel issues we find
Real problems from Laravel codebases we've reviewed.
Mass assignment vulnerabilities
Models without $fillable or $guarded properties, allowing attackers to modify sensitive fields like is_admin or role by including them in request data.
Missing middleware on routes
Routes that handle sensitive operations without auth, throttle, or verified middleware, exposing them to unauthenticated or abusive access.
N+1 query problems
Eloquent relationships accessed in Blade loops without eager loading (with()), generating hundreds of queries per page load.
Unvalidated request data
Controller methods using $request->all() directly without Form Request validation, allowing unexpected fields and data types into business logic.
Social Platform challenges to solve
Key social platform concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Content moderation and safety
Users will post spam, harassment, illegal content, and misinformation. You need automated content filtering, user reporting flows, admin moderation tools, and clear community guidelines enforcement. Launching without moderation is a legal and reputational risk.
Feed algorithm and performance
A chronological feed is simple but doesn't scale — loading thousands of posts to sort them on every request kills performance. AI tools build basic feeds that work with 50 posts but crawl with 50,000. You need pagination, caching, and potentially a ranking algorithm.
User-generated content storage
Images, videos, and files uploaded by users need proper storage — CDN delivery, format optimization, size limits, and malware scanning. AI tools implement basic file upload but skip content delivery optimization and security scanning.
Notification system
Likes, comments, follows, mentions, and messages all generate notifications across multiple channels — in-app, push, and email. Building a notification system that's timely without being spammy, and that handles user preferences, is a complex infrastructure challenge.
What we check
Key areas we review for Laravel social platform projects.
Content moderation — automated filtering, reporting flow, admin tools
Feed performance — pagination, caching, query optimization
Media handling — CDN delivery, image optimization, upload limits
Privacy controls — blocking, profile visibility, data export
