Laravel query builder: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/queries

This line reads all the records from the table "tasks" from the database.
$tasks = DB::table('tasks')->get();

If you return the result in a route function:

$tasks = DB::table('tasks')->get();
return $tasks;

You will get a JSON formate of the table data printed into the browser.
Can help in inspecting the structure of the table.

Install JSON formatter extension into Google chrome.

If you return it to the view:

$tasks = DB::table('tasks')->get();
return view('welcome', compact('tasks'));

You will need to read it something like this:
Note that this time $tasks is a collection of objects (not an array)
so to access it, you need this syntax $task->body

<ul>
@foreach ($tasks as $task)
<li>{{$task->body}}</li>
@endforeach
</ul>

- - - - - - - - - -

Now try this:

Route::get('/tasks/{id}', function ($id) {

$task = DB::table('tasks')->where('id', '=', $id)->get();

dd($id); // dump and die

});

You access this route this way: http://localhost:8000/tasks/1
