Laravel's Service Container handles dependency injection and auto-wiring by mapping service requests to their implementations. The container supports various binding types (bind, singleton, instance), contextual bindings for different implementations per consumer, auto-wiring through type hints, tags for grouping services, and extension hooks for decorating existing services. Service providers manage the container lifecycle through register and boot phases, while features like method injection and contextual primitives provide flexible dependency resolution.
