In this talk I demonstrate our laravel-dashboard package

In this talk, recorded at Laracon Australia 2019, I explain a strategy to structure large Laravel applications, using Flare as an example

My team and I are currently building Mailcoach, a self-hosted solution to easily send out newsletters and email campaigns. In this video, I live code a new small feature.

This video was created unrehearsed and I didn't make any edits. So you can see every mistake that I made along the way.

Together with Marcel Pociot and our teams, I created Flare, the best error tracking service for Laravel applications. Together with Flare we completly revamped Laravel's default error page which is baptized Ignition.

In this video you can see the inital reveal of both Flare and Ignition at Laracon EU 2019 in Amsterdam.

A while ago I had to create a fairly complicated CRUD interface from scratch. While this isn't rocket science, there surprisingly aren't that many good resource out there on how to do this. That's why our team dove in and published a couple of packages that can help create modern CRUD interface.

In this highly practical talk you'll learn how we nowadays go about creating a CRUD interface at Spatie. We'll take a look at how we can convert url parameters to a Eloquent query. You'll learn what view models are. We'll create some server side components with BladeX and much more.

It's guaranteed that you'll take away one or few new tricks you can apply in your projects today.

Thanks to all the excellent resources on server management many developers are now setting up and administrating their own servers. If you are one of them you can't count on anybody else but yourself to backup the data of your clients.

We cover the backup issues presented when using modern hosting such as Linode and DigitalOcean. Then we review some enterprise grade solutions. Finally we dive deep into implementing a backup system using Laravel 5's filesystem abstraction.

On the wall mounted TV in our office a dashboard is displayed. At a glance we can see what the current tasks for each member of our team are, which important events are coming up, which music is playing, ... and much more.

In this talk I explain how we leveraged both Laravel and Vue to build the dashboard. After demonstrating the dashboard itself we take a deep dive in the code. We take a look at the entire flow: the grid system, how events are broadcasted using Pusher, some cool Vue mixins and much more. After this talk you'll be able to setup your own dashboard using our open sourced code.

In most CMS kind of projects you're going to let a user upload all sorts of images and files. Storing those files, associating them with models, creating thumbnails for them, optimizing images, can be a lot of work. Luckily laravel-medialibrary can do all that for you.

In this talk you'll see a practical demo of how to get started with the medialibrary. You'll learn how to store files, generate urls to them, how to use different image profiles and how to use external filesystems to store big assets.

If you’re using Laravel you’re going to love this. If you use another framework, come along for the ride and steal some ideas.

In an event sourced app you're storing each event that happens within your app and derive all state from those events.

In this practical talk you'll get an intro on what event sourcing is and what the benefits are. After that we'll dive in the Laravel ecosystem and take a look at how we can create projectors and aggregates using the laravel-event-projector package.
