The method for obtaining the current timestamp using Carbon in Laravel 5 is by calling the now() method from the Carbon class.
Example:
use Carbon\Carbon;
$currentTimestamp = Carbon::now();
echo $currentTimestamp;
This will output the current timestamp in the default format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS). You can modify the format as needed by calling the format() method and passing in a valid date format string.
Example:
$currentTimestamp = Carbon::now()->format('d/m/Y H:i:s');
echo $currentTimestamp;
This will output the current timestamp in the format (DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS).
