Building websites and apps, from my tiny web agency based in the UK https://youi.design - previously Sound Engineer touring the world
Just set up a Laravel Cloud application for the first time!

Laravel + Postgres + Inertia + Vue JS

After a few tiny tweaks to my codebase, I'm up and running!

The experience using laravel cloud is awesome!

This looks like fun 😎
🚀 Introducing Motion for @vuejs.org — A feature-complete port of Motion for React (prev Framer Motion).

Springs, scroll, AnimatePresence, gestures, and yes, layout animations. All that and more, powered by Motion's unique hybrid engine, wrapped up with its simple API.

Laravel Scout search has a database driver option (as opposed to using Algolia / MeiliSearch), to simply search using DB text indexes.

It's fast.
It's probably all you need for many projects!

Laravel is a PHP web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We’ve already laid the foundation — freeing you to create without sweating the small things.

Shout out to @shadcn @vuejs.org shadcn-vue www.shadcn-vue.com/docs/compone...

This has made my current project a dream to work on.

I've built my own component libraries in the past, on nearly every project I've worked on. That time has passed. This is the way ™️

Tag inputs render tags inside an input, followed by an actual text input.

I feel like I have two batteries in me.

When I code, it charges the social battery.
And when I do social, it charges my coding battery.

Got to swap them periodically to hold up the efficiency.

Having a great experience using @spatie.be 's 'laravel-data' package to auto generate typescript types. After a little setting up, my Inertia Vue front end has full type knowledge of my models including pagination types etc.

AHH that feeling of starting a new laravel project.

50+ tables planned in the database.

Excited for the chance to have all templating in Vue thanks to Inertia.

First step, plan all the schema!

I built this site last week for a co-working space in Birmingham, UK.

thejointworks.com

I was handed the design by Substrakt, a web agency also based in Birmingham... props to the designer Serlina for such a cool bold look!

Built with @nuxt.com and @tailwindcss.com

Every day I want to go film a video of myself talking about my business. But my business always seems to take first place and the video gets pushed to one side!

Next week I'm making it happen! 📹

Woah! Best new laravel feature discovery came to me today, from Povilas Korop:

the `fluent()` or `data_get()` helpers to access properties inside objects / arrays where you might not know the type of the data and just want to `use.dot.notation` to get to some nested property.

Hey everybody!

I'm a full stack Laravel / TS / Vue developer! Currently working on some video content to promote my tiny web agency.

Here's a sneak peek of the picture I have achieved so far with my camera setup...

Really feeling that the final 10% of the project takes as long as the first 90%. The last bit is always the toughest, especially on slightly larger-sized projects? #thefinishline

In my past life as a Monitor sound engineer I worked with some amazing acts and travelled all over the world.

Here are some highlights:

1. Staying at Francis Ford Coppola's personal estate and eating dinner with him and his family. They were so friendly. A very surreal couple of days.
