What is Task Scheduling in Laravel?

Laravel's task scheduler allows you to fluently define scheduled commands within the application itself, instead of managing multiple cron entries. Define schedules in app/Console/Kernel.php's schedule() method: $schedule->command("emails:send")->daily(), $schedule->job(new ReportJob)->weekdays()->at("08:00"), $schedule->call(fn() => DB::table("logs")->delete())->monthly(). Frequency methods: everyMinute(), hourly(), daily(), weekly(), cron("* * * * *"). Constraints: ->weekdays(), ->between("8:00", "17:00"), ->when(fn() => $condition). Only one cron entry needed on the server: * * * * * php /path/to/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1. Prevent overlapping: ->withoutOverlapping().
