Is Laravel 5.1 Compatible with PHP 7

According to the installation section on the Laravel website, 5.1 is compatible with PHP >= 5.5.9.

Looking through the incompatibilities I can't see anything that immediately flags warning signs.

Has anyone run into issues running PHP 7 with Laravel 5.1?

Edit: Set Kyar Wa Lar linked a useful resource to PHP 7 and Laravel.

For better experience with PHP 7.3, you may simply upgrade it to Laravel 5.2. It works well with PHP 7.3 environment.
