How to check if a date falls on a weekend using Carbon in PHP?

To check if a date falls on a weekend using Carbon in PHP, you can use the isWeekend() method provided by the Carbon library. Here's an example:

use Carbon\Carbon;

$date = Carbon::parse('2022-12-31'); // Replace with your desired date

if ($date->isWeekend()) {
    echo "The date falls on a weekend";
} else {
    echo "The date does not fall on a weekend";
}

In this example, we're parsing the date '2022-12-31' using the Carbon::parse() method. Then, we're using the isWeekend() method to check if the date falls on a weekend. If it does, the "The date falls on a weekend" message will be displayed. Otherwise, the "The date does not fall on a weekend" message will be displayed.
