I'm excited to announce the TemPHPest extension is on the Visual Studio Code marketplace to pick up!
It might not be groundbreaking, but it solves a dozen papercuts I've found working with PHP in VScode - and it's made my life easier!

🧐 Kinda crazy thing you can do with lazy objects in PHP 8.4
Easily make Eloquent execute queries "just in time"
I'm doing this in Livewire 4 to make sure we're only executing database queries that are actually used in your components.
Here's a quick macro to demonstrate

We asked @stauffermatt, the head of @TightenCo, to share some of the lessons he learned over the years.
In his latest episode, he talks about how to organize and structure the various positions of a dev team.
Also, hear about a time when he was never more unhappy at Tighten.
I can't believe we've gotta wait 5 months to see @stauffermatt's whole Laracasts course 😭
Let's take a quick dive into what it actually stops and how that works.

🎃 Halloween is the time for scares, but not from your database!
Prohibit destructive commands in production in your @laravelphp app to make sure you can't accidentally run `artisan migrate:fresh` and keep your data safe.
Filament's static `configureUsing` methods might just be my favourite configuration API for anything ever
TIL if you press the "Escape" key while writing a Tweet/reply it'll just blank it. No undo, no confirmation, it just blanks everything
Check out how to set these up in a service provider and middleware in this video:

🔥You should always force your application to use HTTPS in production. Here's how you can do it with Laravel:
1️⃣ Ensure all generated links use https (configurable with the URL facade)
2️⃣ Redirect users from http to https (with a middleware)
FontAwesome 5 was the last good version of FontAwesome
Because it didn't require a damned subscription plan for an icon pack

Livewire v4 beta has been tagged! Go forth ⚡️ github.com/livewire/livewire…
Docs can be found here livewire.laravel.com/docs/4.…
See in this video how easy it is to customise, and the kind of changes I'd probably make for my own projects:

🔥 What if every `artisan make` command followed your style?
Run `artisan stub:publish` to copy all the files to the `/stubs` directory, then you can change them how you like. Add strict types, clean up docblocks, get rid of that pesky `down` migration method, whatever you want

Thanks to @LiamHammett, we’ve just rolled out dynamic node package manager support in Boost v1.5.0🔥
From now on, Boost will automatically detect and include the package manager you’re using in the generated guidelines whether it’s npm, pnpm, yarn or bun. ✨
There’s nothing quite like being trapped in an airport after security but before the whole lounge area is open… like a hundred people just piled in a hallway here
