AI translates the explanation and quiz text while preserving code and answer scoring.

Multi-tenancy in Laravel is commonly implemented via single-database (a tenant_id column plus global query scopes) or multi-database (separate database connections per tenant, switched dynamically) approaches. Packages like stancl/tenancy automate database switching, domain-based tenant identification, and per-tenant migrations/queues. Careful attention is needed so background jobs, cached data, and file storage paths remain properly scoped to the correct tenant.
