What do you mean? Why would you want to integrate CMS with framework?

hmm... well, a bit back I implemented wordpress with a laravel site, and you could use wordpress to take care of writing the blog. The way I did it thought was make a sub domain that points to a different directory housing the wordpress installation where you could write the blog, and I made laravel simply pull an rss feed from the blog on that subdomain, then style the feed however I wanted on the laravel end.

Other than that, not sure what else you would do with the two in terms of synergy.

I don't think you would "integrate" wordpress with laravel, I think you are not truly understanding the power of a framework. Laravel allows you to create your own wordpress.

I think he meant to use WordPress' admin GUI in Laravel project, but then why use Laravel? With plugins, WordPress can be pretty powerful framework too.

I agree that integration seems a bit odd, but maybe we're arguing semantics. We recently used WordPress to provide a budget admin panel for an APi we built with node. We connected to the WP box through a local network and pulled out the content creating a structured JSON object we could then cache in mongo and provide through our API endpoints.

I could definitely see a reason for approaching it in this manner, if you're after an MVP, and your laravel build is more of a web app than a website. WordPress has a fairly generic and easy to customise admin so using Wordpress in this manner can get you where you need to go pretty quickly. Though I wouldn't necessarily recommend an approach like this for beginners, and if you're building a serious product over time your admin should probably be purpose built.
