Vanilla PHP or Framework?

If you are PHP developer and need to start a new project...

Do you go for vanilla PHP or do you use a framework like Laravel? Why?

    Laravel has wayyy too much built in to consider using vanilla PHP. To me the question is rather why would you want to use vanilla PHP?

    If choosing Laravel will slow you down (because of the learning curve) consider vanilla PHP.
