    Should You Learn Laravel Before PHP?

    Should you learn PHP first or jump straight into Laravel? 🤔 It’s a question every newcomer asks, and in this episode, Jeffrey breaks down both sides of the debate. We’ll talk about the benefits of mastering PHP basics, the faster “time to first win” that Laravel offers, and how beginners can balance learning without feeling overwhelmed. Whether you’re just starting with HTML/CSS or ready to build your first CRUD app, this video will help you figure out the best path forward. 💻✨ Share your thoughts in the comments — what worked for you?

    Where Does Laracasts Go From Here?

    In the last year, the way we program has changed dramatically. Perhaps, more dramatically than at any other time in my career. We can thank AI for that. So that begs the question: how does Laracasts fit into this new environment?

    The AI Episode

    In this episode, we dig into the subject of AI... and whether it's going to steal your job or not. Don't worry: no bait in this video. Just an honest conversation about where we are, and what it all might mean.

    Horses for Courses

    We love tools: linters, type checkers, test runners, asset compilers, et al. Whilst these tools can help solve problems, they might also be a sledgehammer when all you really need is a screwdriver. Let me tell you a little anecdote about upgrading my personal site to Laravel 11, and why sometimes removing a tool is even better than adding one.

    The Stories We Tell Ourselves

    Tell me what you think of this. We all have certain stories about ourselves that we repeat, like mantras. "I am the type of person who is X, therefore..." But, for all the reps, I'm not sure these are doing us any good at all.

    Here's Why You Should Attend Laracon

    Luke, here! I recently got the chance to attend and speak at Laracon EU 2024, and it was fantastic. The venue was awesome, the talks were amazing, but what really makes the event special are the conversations you have with like-minded developers. Let me tell you about it.

    Find Your Fit

    It occurred to me recently that, if my job consisted exclusively of writing code 40 hours a week, I don't think I'd be a programmer today. I might go out of my mind.
