I haven’t learned this much, this fast since I first began using Laravel.

In my work, I frequently end up having to do a lot of data analysis.

Over the past couple years, I’ve been a heavy linux user.

why?

I almost always have a few projects on the go at a t ime at iApotheca, and then I also usuually have a few side projects I work on as well.

This is a todo list written entirely in bash saves to text file, so internet isn’t required, and your data stays locally on your device. entirely open source, modify to suit your needs very easily Here is a quick peek at what it can do Check out the source

observations **I lasted 2 weeks before switching back to my pixel** The process was interesting… there were 2 things that ultimately yanked me back to my pixel. camera First is the camera - the flip phone doesn’t have a camera that’s worth talking about.

check out my new rig (atleast for a while). reasoning I am not going to drag this out to be a post a day because I seriously hope I don’t have something new to say about this process daily.

some background/requirements for this project I have a mac, as well as 2 linux machines, and I switch between them fairly regularly depending on where I’m working, and what I’m working on.

Over the last little while, I’ve noticed more and more development frameworks moving towards component based layouts.

Personally, I don’t find it compelling reading dev blog posts that follow these patterns “I had a problem, so I asked a question, and this person had an answer that was ….”

intro I’m working on a project right now for a company.

purpose One of the biggest problems that face developers today is estimating the time required to complete a task.

TLDR I am switching my blog from Jigsaw to Hugo so I can learn a bit more about webpack, bundlers, postcss, purgecss etc.

Just a quick release for this one.

Quick link to the GIST: View Gist on Github Some background info I use Honeybadger for some of my applications, and today, I started pushing deployments to Honeybadger, but I wanted a file I was comfy committing to the repositiory.

This is an open-source Alpine.js & TailwindCSS mini-web app application which allows you to preview/tweak your Alpine.js transitions in real time before copying them to your project Here are the relevant links: Github Pages Deployment Git Repo Project Page

Alpine Transitions Previewer If you use Alpine.js and Tailwindcss, this can fit in really nicely to your design process, but if you also have a TailwindUI license, there is a bit more value. alpine-transitions-preview is an open-source (MIT) one-page Alpi…

Recently - I asked this question on the laracasts discussion board and I got an answer that surpassed my expectations.

First off - if you’ve not read the post using Model::Upsert in laravel 8, check that out before you read this one.

This page is inspired by some other developer’s “my setup” pages.

While I was kind of digging through my configuration files to make the post what i use, I went down a bit of a rabbit hole for my zsh configuration.

Hi all, So I’m going to start a youtube channel just showing how I work, and what I do.

If you haven’t heard of Manny, it’s an open source package I created in March of 2020.

If you’ve not heard of TailwindCSS, you’re missing out.

First off - I should say - this is taken from this issue conversation on github - particularly from fra000’s comment on November 14th, 2019 When building any sort of database-driven app, I’ll want to have a Javascript Confirmation before actually performi…

In Laravel, there is a precedent to use a nullable datetime/timestamp field similar to a boolean value, for example things like the field deleted_at which is automatically added to your eloquent models when you use soft_deletes.

This is something I had to google so many times when I got started with Laravel, so I hope others find it helpful.

** Note - this is a non-technical post.

This post expects you to be comfy with Laravel development, and a bit of Livewire as well - although I do go through setting up livewire.

So the other day I was working with Caleb Porzio’s Livewire package, and I ran into a unique situation - atleast for me.

What is it?

Well - for anyone interested in free hosting for a static website using a service like github pages - that’s what this post is about.

What is a snippet?

Well - I just used Jigsaw to build this site.

What is BootstrapVueFormBuilder?
