Laravel Telescope is a powerful debugging and introspection tool for Laravel applications. It allows you to monitor various aspects of your application, including performance bottlenecks. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to configure Laravel Telescope for performance monitoring:

Step 1: Install Laravel Telescope

Install Laravel Telescope using Composer:

bash
composer require laravel/telescope

Step 2: Publish Configuration and Migrate Database

Publish the Telescope assets and run the migrations:

bash
php artisan telescope:install

php artisan migrate

Step 3: Configure Telescope

Open your config/telescope.php configuration file and make adjustments based on your preferences. You can configure which tools and features Telescope should enable.

php
// config/telescope.php

return [
    // ...

    'gateways' => [
        'local' => ['127.0.0.1'],
        'production' => ['your_production_ip_address'],
    ],

    'enabled' => env('TELESCOPE_ENABLED', true),
];

Step 4: Enable and Disable Telescope

By default, Telescope is enabled in your local environment. You can use the TELESCOPE_ENABLED environment variable to enable or disable it based on your environment.

Step 5: Monitor Performance with Telescope

Once Telescope is installed and configured, you can access the Telescope dashboard by visiting /telescope in your browser.
