How to parse date in laravel?

@brandy 

In Laravel, you can parse a date using Carbon, which is an extension of the PHP DateTime class and provides a more fluent and convenient way to work with dates and times.

Here's how you can parse a date in Laravel using Carbon:

1. First, make sure you have Carbon installed in your project. You can install it via Composer by running the following command:

1

composer require nesbot/carbon

1. Once Carbon is installed, you can use it to parse a date by creating a new Carbon instance and passing the date string as an argument. For example:

1

$date = Carbon::parse('2022-03-15');

This will create a new Carbon instance representing the date "2022-03-15".

1. You can then format the parsed date in any way you like using the Carbon methods. For example, you can output the date in a different format like this:

1

echo $date->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 2022-03-15

That's it! You have now successfully parsed a date in Laravel using Carbon.
