Install the following packages:

composer require --dev barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper

After that, run:

php artisan ide-helper:models
php artisan ide-helper:generate
php artisan ide-helper:meta

Finally, install this extension on your vs code: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=georgykurian.laravel-ide-helper

Also, there is a good thing (optional): https:// /marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client

It should solve your problem.
