How does Laravel make methods available?

#laravel #php #question

I'm relatively new to laravel and I have found that you have access to certain methods in the controllers e.g. response(), auth(), view() etc. I'd like to know how it does that.

Thanks

Best bet is to dig into the code yourself. But the basic answer is that they are helper methods that return objects either via the IoC container or use a factory to create the object.
