Why Laravel Resource Create and Edit operations are depicted using GET
I am picking up on Laravel, and noted that on Laravel's Documentation, it states that the the GET HTTP verb will be handled by the create and edit operations, but from my understanding of REST and CRUD, a create or edit operation actually results in change of records or state on the back-end. So why does Laravel choose to use GET for create and edit operations?

ThecreateandeditURLs useGETfor showing the forms to create/edit a resource, but saving (changing the records), is handled in thestoreandupdatecommands, which usePOSTandPUT/PATCH.

@KirkBeard So the verbs are specifically for showing what's happening on the UI and not at the back-end?

When you loadhttps://example.com/resource/create, that does not change records on on the backed, so it's perfectly acceptable for it to useGET. That page would contain<form method="POST" action="https://example.com/resource/store">which would process the$_POSTdata, and modify the records in your database (or wherever they may be).

As per Laravel creat and edit method uses GET request because they are used to render a view where you can add or update your data. When you submit you form it will use store and update method which are POST and PUT/PATCH request to save the data into database.
