Have you ever wanted to get a specific data from another website but there's no API available for it? That's where Web Scraping comes in, if the data is not made available by the website we can just scrape it from the website itself.

But before we dive in let us first define what web scraping is. According to Wikipedia:

{% blockquote %} Web scraping (web harvesting or web data extraction) is a computer software technique of extracting information from websites. Usually, such software programs simulate human exploration of the World Wide Web by either implementing low-level Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), or embedding a fully-fledged web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. {% endblockquote %}

		throw new Illuminate\Session\TokenMismatchException;

There's no shortage of good resources for learning laravel. So instead of the usual introductory tutorial were just gonna learn Laravel by building a project from scratch and that's gonna be a User Management System.

I don't know if my definition of a User Management System is correct but here's my idea of what's it's capable of doing:

• Register Roles
• Register Users
• Update Users

// Fun little quiz

Assuming this string: "January 5th, 2012"

In the shortest amount of code possible, place:

- 'January' within a $month variable
- '5th' within a $day variable
- '2012' within a $year variable.
