The Query Builder (DB::table('users')) provides a fluent, database-agnostic interface for building SQL queries without writing raw SQL. It supports where clauses, joins, ordering, grouping, and aggregate functions like count() and sum(). It's often used for complex queries that don't map cleanly to Eloquent models.
