Laravel Blade: @endsection vs @stop

Question

In Laravel Blade, we can basically do this:

@section('mysection')

@endsection


@section('mysection')

@stop

What is the difference between @stop and @endsection?

Structure

Both work @endsection and @stop. I find @endsection feels more intuitive. that's why i also use @endsection in laravel 8. Note: in the laravel 8 documentation you won't find anything more about `@stop. – Gamma

Answer 1

The @endsection was used in Laravel 3 and it was deprecated in Laravel 4

In the Laravel 4 to end a section you have to use @stop

You can refer the Changelog here http://wiki.laravel.io/Changelog_%28Laravel_4%29#Blade_Templating

but still usable (even in the 5 version) – Rienzi

i don't think it's deprecated anymore, they even use it as an example in the currenet version docs. no notice of the @stop keyword laravel.com/docs/5.1/blade – Broadcloth

@endsection isn't 'deprecated' anymore in Laravel 5.2, so this answer should be updated. – Illuminism

And the link is dead. – Salvage

It is not deprecated. If you look at Laravel's official documentation, even in version 6.0 they are still introducing @endsection for the blade. – Quinquevalent

Answer 2

Both @endsection and @stop works.

In Laravel 4 it seems that only @stop is supported 1. But from Laravel 5 onwards @stop is not even mention in the documentation 2.

So I would suggest to use @endsection.

See:

• Laravel 4 Blade Documentation
• Laravel 5.7 Blade Documentation (current stable)

Because of the change in direction of Laravel, this is now the correct answer! – Czechoslovak

Answer 3

Authoritative answer by Taylor Otwell

@endsection became @stop in L4, just as @yieldSection became @show.

At github, Taylor Otwell said

@stop is just @endsection from L3.. @show is just @yieldSection
