    Taylor Otwell on Why Laravel + AI Pair so Well, and the Future of Programming

    The Laravel Podcast is brought to you by Tighten, your friendly neighborhood Laravel experts. Check us out at tighten.com and also by other sponsors you will hear about later in the episode.  In this episode, Matt Stauffer sits down with Taylor Otwell, creator and CEO of Laravel, just days before Laracon in Boston, and gets into why Laravel has become such a natural fit for building with AI coding agents. They talk through Laravel Boost, the value of an opinionated, “batteries included” framework when agents are writing the code, and how “vibe-coding” platforms tend to hit a wall that Laravel doesn’t. Along the way, Taylor makes a striking claim: the big shift in programming has already happened. Most of us aren’t writing code by hand anymore, and the open question is just how much we review versus trust. It’s also a candid conversation about craft, deleting experiments without guilt, and Taylor leaning back into being unapologetically himself.

    Marketing Developer Tools with Cynthia McGillis, VP of Marketing

    The Laravel Podcast is brought to you by Tighten, your friendly neighborhood Laravel experts. Check us out at tighten.com and also by other sponsors you will hear about later in the episode.  In this episode, Matt Stauffer is joined by Cynthia McGillis to talk about her unlikely path from English major and nonprofit fundraiser to leading marketing at Laravel. They discuss what it’s like to market developer tools as a non-developer, how Cynthia helped launch Laravel Cloud, and why the Laravel community feels different from other dev tool ecosystems. The conversation dives into Laravel Cloud features users still don’t realize exist — including auto-scaling, hibernation, preview environments, and the CLI with tinker — along with the challenges of pricing, onboarding, and scaling a modern hosting platform. Matt and Cynthia also explore how AI is reshaping workflows inside Laravel, including how the marketing team is using Claude Code to generate weekly kickoff decks from Linear and Hex APIs, vibe-code landing pages without a CMS, and operationalize a fast-moving marketing org.   Matt Stauffer on X Cynthia on X Cynthia’s Website Cynthia’s Email - cynthia@laravel.comLaravel Twitter Laravel Website Tighten WebsiteSuggestion Box ----- Editing and transcription sponsored by Tighten.

Check us out at tighten.com and also by other sponsors you will hear about later in the episode.  In this episode, Matt Stauffer talks with Tom Crary, President and COO at Laravel, about the path that took him from a Big Four CPA firm to running the business side of one of the most loved frameworks in PHP.
