XF 2.3 How can I benefit from XenForo's features in a Laravel website?

[Qaseem]

Hello

I'm not fluent in English. I hope I can explain my question clearly.
I have a Laravel website that's a marketplace, similar to Amazon and Alibaba.
My question is: How can I use XenForo on my website?
Is it possible to integrate a membership system, for example? Or are there any other suggestions?

Thank you.

Maybe use it like a support forum.

Maybe use it like a support forum.

This is already implemented. However, I'd like suggestions on how to further leverage XenForo's features and capabilities on the website.

For example, is it possible to integrate product reviews and ratings into the website itself, while the review and rating system is primarily powered by XenForo?

The goal is to reduce website development costs and boost forum activity and visitor engagement.

You could probably pull it off with XenForo. Best pattern: your website owns the product page UI, but XenForo owns the review/rating content, users, moderation, permissions, alerts, spam controls, and community discussion

The strongest approach is to use XenForo Resource Manager-style resources if your “products” can map to XenForo resources. Each product on your site stores a xenforo_resource_id. Your backend fetches rating_avg, rating_count, rating_weighted, review_count, and review data from XenForo, then displays it directly inside the website product page. XenForo’s API docs expose resource fields like rating_count, rating_avg, rating_weighted, and review_count, and include resource_rating read/write scopes for reviews.
