Use Eloquent Accessors and Mutators to modify attributes when retrieving or setting them on model instances. This allows you to format or transform data seamlessly without altering the original attribute values in the database.
Example for an accessor in a User model:
public function getFullNameAttribute()
{
return "{$this->first_name} {$this->last_name}";
}
This allows you to access full_name like a property on the User instance, enhancing readability and reducing repetitive formatting logic.
