Made a lot of progress on the Forte docs today, Sheath (the Blade linter), Temper (Laravel Blade/View reflection library)
Going to go swap string gauges and enjoy the process of setting up a Floyd Rose

Forte rewrite is complete, and a new alpha just dropped. It was a grind, I am tired, but now I can work on the docs and all the other supporting packages and tools 🗡️

This last 10% push on the core Forte library has been stressing me out a bit - but I can see the finish line! 💅

I just love it when a complex implementation upfront pays off in a big way at the end.

Parsing HTML is a special kind of fun.
Formatting it is a whole other level of fun

I'm wrapping up an extensive #statamic Antlers scope/papercut audit and preparing to start some refactors.
Have anything you'd like me to consider while I work on this?

Working on porting the prettier Blade plugin test suite to the new PHP-based formatter.
Its slow going making sure the behaviors are relatively consistent (while taking into consideration improved whitespace support).
This is gonna take a while 🫠

Some progress from the weekend. Forte's error recovery and extensibility models are now extremely overpowered.
Here's a short code example without a custom extension I wrote to test:

Working on expanding Forte's extensibility model. The parser already supports extensions, but after the day the tokenizer will as well 🔥

@ianlandsman.com Catching up on the latest MT - figured it'd be fun to provider some extra Forte lore. It's a full Blade+HTML parser and AST-manipulation library, with some infrastructure to safely opt-in to AST changes, add new Blade features (without modifying the core framework), and a lot more!

Anyone got any ideas for cool logo/branding ideas for "Forte" - a robust HTML/Blade parser and AST manipulation library for Laravel? 🤔
Getting close to working on the documentation and site.

Working on the core Forte parser this morning. Making some expensive properties lazy-loaded or Just In Time. I'm pretty excited!

A fun look at something I've been chipping away at: leveling up the View Scaffolding feature in #statamic
It generates templates, taking your blueprints and field configuration into consideration!
