Is anyone still using Volt with Livewire / Laravel? Good or bad experience?
Spent a week hunting for one host for all my sites. JS + PHP, containers, workers, one UI. It doesn't exist. And "everything on one VPS" is shared-fate by default. Right model, wrong placement. www.elian.codes/blog/26-06-0...
Elian Codes | These Aren't the Hosts You're Looking For
I went hunting for one platform to host every site my agency runs — static, JS, PHP, the whole pile. Here's the 2026 hosting landscape I waded through, and why the answer turned out to be a seam, not ...

Back home from React Paris 🇫🇷 and as always, it was an amazing experience. Thank you @aymenbenamor.bsky.social @ojilla.bsky.social @elian.codes for having me, I had a great time.

The fastest way to fix a bug is still: print statements regret more print statements
Dear Meetup, if you show rich text in the editor, I expect rich text in the preview. Otherwise don’t call it a rich text editor. Call it ✨surprise mode✨
@tobbe.dev and @elian.codes are just awesome! Love all the supportive, caring and detailed discussion going into a super exciting @npmx.dev initiative! Can’t wait for this to come to life!
