Last night at 8:50 PM, I sat down to rebuild a product's backend from scratch. By 11 PM, I had a complete Laravel API with auth, CRUD, real-time WebSockets, and chat. By 1:50 AM, the existing React Native frontend was wired up and running against it locally. Deployed to the cloud the next morning.
That's about two hours for the entire backend. Five hours total including frontend integration.
Here's how multi-agent orchestration, Laravel, and solid documentation made that possible.
