Laravel Introduction to laravel-5.3 The $loop variable
Example
It is known for a while that dealing with loops in Blade has been limited, as of 5.3 there is a variable called $loop available
@foreach($variables as $variable)
// Within here the `$loop` variable becomes available
// Current index, 0 based
$loop->index;
// Current iteration, 1 based
$loop->iteration;
// How many iterations are left for the loop to be complete
$loop->remaining;
// Get the amount of items in the loop
$loop->count;
// Check to see if it's the first iteration ...
$loop->first;
// ... Or last iteration
$loop->last;
//Depth of the loop, ie if a loop within a loop the depth would be 2, 1 based counting.
$loop->depth;
// Get's the parent `$loop` if the loop is nested, else null
$loop->parent;
@endforeach
