Building Laravel Herd, http://whatthediff.ai , https://tinkerwell.app, NativePHP, and other great tools for developers. Follow my product dev journey. CTO at Beyond Code

Alright, I know a lot of devs who are into board games. And for years I've been thinking about organizing a virtual "meetup" to chat and play some games with others. This works great with something like Tabletop Simulator on Steam. Would anyone be interested in this?

I could use your help gathering some data for my upcoming Laracon EU talk. If you ever had a slow Laravel application/slow request/slow command/etc. - what was the reason for it? Would be great to get as many replies as possible. Please share for reach 🙂

Purchasing Laravel Herd Pro last year has been a fantastic investment. It completely replaced Ray(), mailpit, and DBngin for me. Plus, it's compatible with WordPress, making it well worth the price, in my opinion. The Table Plus button on the DB service is also a nice touch.

I'm starting the new year with a bunch of exciting new ideas and experiments that need proof of concepts. The first one is already done - I'll share a video demonstrating this soon. The other idea is one of those " why has nobody done this yet?!" moments. Pumped for 2025!

A lot of the things we share in our year-in-review posts are about work - or code. But I wanted to share some photos of the people that I loved to hang out with this year. There were obviously more, but I can only share up to 4 photos 🙂 Can't wait to see y'all again 2025 ❤️

So the idea of the app is pretty simple. I want a menubar app that gives me a dashboard-style overview of all the key metrics I might care about. This could be data from Paddle, Fathom Analytics, Spotify, Bluesky, or data that I "push" to the app manually. Here's a prototype with some fake data
