What are the difference between soft delete & delete in laravel?
Answer Posted / Kaushal Kishor
In Laravel, both soft delete and delete are methods used for data management. The main difference lies in how they handle deleted records. Soft delete marks a record as deleted by setting a timestamp on the deleted_at field instead of actually removing it from the database. This allows you to easily restore deleted records if needed. On the other hand, delete permanently removes the record without any timestamp. Soft delete can be reversed using `withTrashed()` and `onlyTrashed()` methods, while delete is irreversible.
