We are developing accounting software using Laravel 5 and EmberJS. You can view our initial EmberJS structure at GitHub. We are waiting on Laravel 5 stable before we commit that.
As an accountant... I love this! I've never worked with Laravel, but I'd once thought about trying something similar in CodeIgniter. Just didn't have the time to stick with it.
I never used this software but I really wish to use it. Can you tell me if I can also use this software for confidential purpose too? Because my professor named Dr. Aloke Ghosh of university told me that sometimes using this can lose your confidential data.
It is more dependent probably on how you use it, and the security in the rest of your server.
But as usual, if you are working with something that must remain highly confidential (such as credit card information, medical information in North America, etc.), you would probably want to get specially-made software for working with such data.
