The Laravel Podcast

Very few Laravel applications don’t have a data store backing them, and the vast majority are backed by a relational database like MySQL. Laravel’s built-in tooling for interacting with databases, Eloquent and the Query Builder, are powerful, flexible, easy-to-use tools that will get you moving quickly but stay flexible as your app grows. Jonathan Reinink is the author of Eloquent Performance Patt...

Every app has bugs! Learning to debugging your apps is a powerful and vital skill, but we also need to know when the bugs are happening, so pair that with good monitoring and you’re ready to go! In this episode, we’re joined by Jonty Behr, a long-time community member, the creator of Laravel Live UK, and the creator of Laravel-targeted bug and log tracker understand.io. Jonty’s Twitter - https://t...

Any web-based application routes all its requests through URL. Laravel’s routing allows you to define URLs, URL patterns, and HTTP Verbs to match you users’ incoming request to your application’s logic. And, while not all web-based applications return HTML, most do, so let’s also get familiar with Blade, Laravel’s templating language. In this episode, Caleb Porzio, creator of Laravel Livewire and...

If you're going to work in modern web development, one of the key ingredients is a local development environment that doesn't rely on anything but your local machine to run. But, even just in the Laravel world, there are so many options to choose from! In this episode, three guests will talk us through the pros and cons of Laravel Valet, Laravel Homestead, and Docker-based solutions like Laradock...

Most modern web applications and frameworks are built on the principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP),. Laravel itself is object-oriented. But many of us learn about OOP bit by bit as we're coding, not in any formal way. In this episode we talk to Alena Holligan, veteran PHP programmer, OOP implementer, and educator about what exactly OOP is and how a deeper knowledge of OOP can help us. Lo...

Most modern development workflows rely on version control, and most of those use Git. It's easy to follow a quick tutorial and learn a few basic commands--and you should, before listening to this episode--but how much do you know about Git's history, how it compares to other version control systems, or what's actually happening with branches and commits and merges and rebases? Git enthusiast and e...

As PHP and Laravel programmers, we use Composer every day. But we often don't know its history, nuances, or the plans for the future. In this episode Matt talks with Jordi Bogianno, co-creator and co-maintainer of Composer, about the powerful tool's history, common use cases, and overall purpose. But we also dive into some nuances, some common mistakes, how it differs from NPM, and the future of t...
