Laravel Helpers are global functions that you can utilize to simplify and speed up the development task. Laravel provides many in-built helper functions that you can use in your project.
You can define your own custom helper functions if you want. In this tutorial, we are going to create a custom helper function, so let’s get started.
Step 1: Create Custom Helper
First, create a Helpers directory into app directory and create Helper.php file like this app/Helpers/helpers.php
<?php
function random_code() {
return rand(1111, 9999);
}Step 2: Load Custom Helper
To load the helper.php file in the composer.json file, add the following code:
“autoload”: {
“files”: [
“app/Helper/Helper.php”
],
},After adding the code, run the command: composer dump-autoload
This command recompiles loads of files.

You can use your custom helper function in your controller and views like this:
$code = random_code();
print_r($code); Conclusion
