In this article, you’re going to look at how you can create a helper function for your Laravel application. I've read many articles on the internet where many publishers have demonstrated on how you can accomplish this functionality quickly by adding your helper functions to the composer.json file of your Laravel project. This doesn't feel an accurate way to me, as it can quickly make your project look vile. In this post, I will be explaining you a much better way of creating a helper function that complies with the concept of writing cleaner code, and thus making your application much readable to your fellow coding mate.

If you want to check whether this function has been declared earlier, then you can use this check: if (!function_exists(‘convertPoundsToKilogram’)).
