Just hit 1,000 subscribers on YouTube! 🎉
When I started making videos, I had no idea if anyone would actually watch. Turns out some of you do, and that’s pretty cool.
If you’re not already, follow @laravelnews and subscribe to my channel. More Laravel goodness coming soon 🚀

I haven’t used WorkOS to be honest. I might give it a shot when I get the chance and test the workflow out 😁

I’ve been using this the past week, it has helped greatly! Give it a shot, let me know what you think 😄

🚀 Just open-sourced my first Claude Code skill!

If you use Laravel + Herd and hate context-switching between branches... this one's
for you.

/laravel-herd-worktree - automated git worktrees with full Herd integration.

🔗 github.com/harris21/laravel-herd-worktree

🧵 Here's what it does...

👉 When you're done, it handles:

• Creating PRs directly from the worktree
• Transferring changes back to main
• Full cleanup (Herd unlink, worktree removal)

If you're a Laravel dev using Herd, give it a try and let me know what you think! ⭐

👉 One command sets up everything:

• Creates isolated git worktree
• Links to Herd at your-branch.test
• Configures .env (APP_URL, sessions, Sanctum)
• Installs composer & npm dependencies
• Starts Vite with correct CORS settings
