Something we didn't show in the Laracon US keynote is that Forge now keeps a log of when you run recipes. Now, you can see when and what servers a recipe was run on.

I am incredibly proud of the Forge team and all their hard work!
Unfortunately, some of the team were unable to join us at Laracon but all played a huge part in making Forge more awesome.
Incredible work 👏

📷 I'm not a photographer (as you can tell), but I love trying to capture something on a proper camera.
✨ I use the Leica D-Lux 7, which does far more than I'll ever understand.
🐑 I snapped these sheep last weekend.
