Usage in controller

app/Http/Controllers/ProductControllr.php

<?php 

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

class ProductController extends Controller 
{
        public function index(Request $request)
        {
            $filterAttrs = \FacetFilter::toArray($request->get(\FacetFilter::getFilterUrlKey()));
            
            $products = Product::with('media')
                ->facetFilterable($filterAttrs) // facetFilterable - for example your scope
                ->get();

            return view('article.index', [
                'articles' => $products,
            ]);
        }

array:3 [▼
  "color" => array:2 [▼
    0 => "red"
    1 => "green"
  ]
  "size" => array:1 [▼
    0 => "m"
  ]
  "ergonomic" => array:2 [▼
    0 => "form-1"
    1 => "form-2"
  ]
