-## About Laravel
+> (If you're here looking for the older `laravel-sms` project, check out the v1 tag on this repo)
 
-Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We believe development must be an enjoyable and creative experience to be truly fulfilling. Laravel takes the pain out of development by easing common tasks used in many web projects, such as:
+Laravel Messages is a very simple demo app to show a Messages API integration with Laravel 7. It receives and responds to WhatsApp messages, sends Messages to a whitelisted number, and logs the incoming status events.
 
-- [Simple, fast routing engine](https://laravel.com/docs/routing).
-- [Powerful dependency injection container](https://laravel.com/docs/container).
-- Multiple back-ends for [session](https://laravel.com/docs/session) and [cache](https://laravel.com/docs/cache) storage.
-- Expressive, intuitive [database ORM](https://laravel.com/docs/eloquent).
-- Database agnostic [schema migrations](https://laravel.com/docs/migrations).
-- [Robust background job processing](https://laravel.com/docs/queues).
-- [Real-time event broadcasting](https://laravel.com/docs/broadcasting).
