So one dev in my team decided to use Laravel for a project, which no one else has experience with. I'm not sure if it's standard or not, but there seem to be a lot of static stuff being used. Is that the preferred way, or just something new people can do who don't know any better?

Laravel definitely uses a lot of static method calls. We use User::find($userID) to pick out a user and the Eloquent ORM uses static calls in the form User::where('name', 'Jim')->where('age', '>', 20)->get() etc.

Stuff like Facades really spook me since there's got to be a better way.

What is it about them that's a concern? Some specific use my your coworker that seems nonstandard?

I just don't like using static classes, that's all.
