About SpinApp
SpinApp is “Laravel local dev, AI-enabled.”
Overview
SpinApp is a company product that delivers an AI-enabled Laravel local development environment. SpinApp provisions a Docker-based stack and provides container context so AI assistants can run development commands for Laravel projects.
What SpinApp is for
SpinApp focuses on local development workflows where:
- Laravel services (app, database, Redis/queue workers, and a web server) are required
- Developers need frontend assets built for local access
- AI assistants (via MCP) should run commands inside the correct containers
How SpinApp fits into a developer workflow
SpinApp includes a setup flow for a Laravel repository and environment provisioning. Once started, SpinApp provides local access at my-app.local, runs Laravel and frontend tooling inside containers, and supports queue monitoring.
Key components SpinApp includes
SpinApp includes:
- A Docker-based environment that runs required services
- A bundled MCP server per project
- Container-aware actions like command execution, SQL execution, logs, and environment lifecycle controls
- A queue dashboard intended to replace Horizon
Environment access and sharing
SpinApp manages /etc/hosts so the app lives at my-app.local. SpinApp supports sharing via a Cloudflare tunnel to expose the local Laravel app to teammates or clients.
