Dude! This is so great!
I have created something similar myself in two different projects but this solves it in a much cleaner way. Glad to see your solutions! 😃

I wonder though, why do you force php 7.1? Why not go for the broader audience and allow also php 7.0?

Thanks again for sharing your stuff!

Hi @blomdahldaniel! It's always tough to decide how to determine dependency restrictions. In this case I always determine required PHP version by the highest PHP version required by compatible Laravel versions or dependencies. In this case it is Laravel 5.6 that requires PHP 7.1.3. :) Also, I try to only support active PHP versions (7.0.x only receives security updates anymore and is on its way out, see here: https://secure.php.net/supported-versions.php).

I'm glad to hear that you like the package though! And thanks for reaching out. :)
