If you baked a ton of HTML βhelpersβ into your Laravel codebase instead of using straight up HTML this was a dumb decision. So glad I never went down this route π€

I mean isnβt this filed under it depends? Not built anything bespoke thatβs ever sat and not evolved. Unplugged from the internet maybe but βliveβ and accessible to all - no?

Laravel at scale is completely different beast π Especially when picking up a legacy build with little idea how it pulls togetherβ¦ Making progress β³
Bitbucket.. You need to upgrade. $3.30 a month. Thanks for upgrading $16.60 a month. Howβs that worked out π

Spent a good couple of hours trying to build a site with 2025 and full site editor. Got fed up and pulled a rough hybrid site together in an hour. FSE really does over complicate things so so hard to work with. Sure I could work with it. Just really feels like something that I wonβt enjoy π€·πΌββοΈ
Had to kill a bunch of homebrew stuff to get it to work. Probably me but deffo not a one click install thing π
Now changed to php versiob to 8.3 as I donβt think Imagick is supported with 8.4. phpinfo claims to be still be 8.4. What a crock of shit π©
Installed Laravel Herd and as expected itβs not as easy as the docs makes out π Absolute tosh that it installs Imagick and it works out of the box π¦
Working on a cool little Laravel app which will mean the death of a legacy classic asp system that harks back to my college days. Amazing how far tech has progressed in (say quietly 20+ years). ps. How am I 40 this year? π€―
Anyone ever got this working with local storage? I call bullshit on this chunk of documentation. laravel-livewire.com/docs/2.x/fil...
Been working my way through this laracasts.com/series/react.... Really great series but Iβm still sticking with Vue π Helps with custom block stuff though πͺ

WordPress driving me insane today. Do we add this to my theme.json or to the css. Why canβt making websites get easier with time π π₯²
Sounds good! I had a nose at your theme.json/css so makes sense how it works and I wasnβt going mad π
Great talk both! Can you shed any light on setting up nice block spacing? Are you doing this with css or theme.json π
Really enjoying pulling together custom blocks. Feel like its a nice solution for those elements/components that are specific to a site that you want rigid styles but flexibility to edit. Actually not that complicated? Toggle styles/visibility of stuff and away you go π€·πΌββοΈ
Built my first custom block this afternoon π Need to learn react then π Who thought { test && showthis } was nice syntax I want vue π₯²
Made some more progress on this yesterday. Getting closer to launch. So hard with your own stuff. Really aiming for it be as easy to use as possible with minimal amount of options/choices π
Plugins 27 now inactive. Down to 16 of which I can probably remove 3/4 more with a bit more work. So much jank out there π
