Cursor AI Rules for Laravel 11+ Structure

Let's talk about how to make Cursor/Claude generated Laravel code more up-to-date with the latest versions.

---

My Rules from laravel-11.mdc:

Use Laravel 11+ skeleton structure.

**Service Providers**: there are no other service providers except AppServiceProvider. Don't create new service providers unless absolutely necessary. Use Laravel 11+ new features, instead. Or, if you really need to create a new service provider, register it in `bootstrap/providers.php` and not `config/app.php` like it used to be before Laravel 11.
**Event Listeners**: since Laravel 11, Listeners auto-listen for the events if they are type-hinted correctly.
**Console Scheduler**: scheduled commands should be in `routes/console.php` and not `app/Console/Kernel.php` which doesn't exist since Laravel 11.
**Middleware**: should be registered in `bootstrap/app.php` and not `app/Http/Kernel.php` which doesn't exist since Laravel 11.
**Tailwind**: in new Blade pages, use Tailwind and not Bootstrap. Tailwind is already pre-configured since Laravel 11, with Vite.
