Laravel 5.4 Bootstrap row class for every 3 columns

Backend as a service (BaaS) provides a centralised database and other features to manage user-generated data and application data. The developer can link applications to the backend service and backend service expose APIs to manage users, integrate push notification and analytics. BaaS is a recent development of cloud computing technology. Using backend services provide developers functionalities to manage users, data and to analyse real-time changes actively. Backend service should be able to handle the offline case gracefully and minimise battery drain. Back in the day developers had to develop custom backend platforms using server-side technologies. And developers had to scale up and down according to the user base and app usage. It was time-consuming in terms of resources and skills. Most mob
