## AGPLv3

License updated to AGPLv3 to close the SaaS loophole and ensure that all modifications used to provide network services are contributed back to the community.

## Filament

Filament is another reason to use Laravel if you need admin consoles without needing to develop another app atop of your own app to give operational control over the app.

It is a way to create apps that have all the features of an advanced app with management capabilities without needing to write all of that yourself. Admin interfaces are complex and hard to write, hard to get right. 

There are so many things to do, we don't have the time to re-write or re-invent what is already achieved by filament and likely, better than we could create ourselves or likely dream of.
