This package helps you organize request validation data for Laravel form requests.

Instead of having multiple form request files for creating and updateing you can store both validation rules in the same file.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Requests;

use LaravelMethodFormRequest\FormRequest;

class UserRequest extends FormRequest

    /**
     * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public function createRules(): array
    {
        return [
