Summary

Laravel provides a feature called "Laravel Queue" that allows developers to defer time-consuming tasks, such as sending emails, and prevent them from timing out. In this tutorial, we implemented Laravel Queue to send emails using SendGrid, a service that provides email verification features. We created a listener class to dispatch the mailing job when a new user is registered, and a mailable class to build the email template. We also set up queue drivers and tested our application to ensure that it was sending emails through the queue instead of the default workflow. The tutorial concluded by highlighting additional features of Laravel Queue, such as priorities, max job attempts, and rate limiting, which developers can use to make full use of this feature.
