## AI overview

Turso announces official Laravel support through the open-source libsql-laravel adapter and PHP PDO interface. The technical preview integrates with Laravel's database layer, supports local SQLite and Turso configurations, and removes the need for custom PHP extensions. The article also demonstrates migrations, Eloquent models, vector embeddings, and similarity searches for a movie recommendation system.

## Source excerpt

Use Turso natively with Laravel through our new 'libsql-laravel' adapter and PHP PDO interface. No custom PHP extensions, just a database URL and auth token.
