Use the fill() method to assign attributes to an eloquent model in bulk. this also allows method chaining in the same block to help your code flow a little smoother.
Instead of:
// Assigning properties one by one
$user->first_name = 'John';
$user->last_name = 'Doe';
$user->active = true;
$user->save();
We can do this:
// bulk aissining with fill()
$attributes = [
'first_name' => 'John',
'last_name' => 'Doe',
'active' => true
];
$user->fill($attributes)->save();
