At our latest hackathon, we built Live at Spatie, a Laravel and React wrapper around Owntone that lets the whole team queue music, see what's playing, and control the office speakers. The nicest touch is the Slack bot: thanks to an MCP server powered by laravel/mcp and OpenClaw, you can ask it to queue music right from Slack.

The spatie/laravel-sluggable package has been around for close to a decade. A slug is the readable part of a URL that identifies a record, like announcing-laravel-sluggable-v4-with-self-healing-urls in this post's URL. The package generates one for any Eloquent model when you save it, derived from a title or another text field, and most of the time you don't have to think about it.
We just released v4, which adds a few things worth talking about. Let me walk you through them.
This practical guide shows how to use spatie/laravel-health together with Oh Dear to detect vulnerable Composer dependencies in production and get alerted quickly. It also shows how adding composer audit in CI gives you an extra early warning layer.

A mobile pass is that thing in your iPhone's Wallet app. A boarding pass, a concert ticket, a coffee loyalty card, a gym membership. Apple calls them passes. Google calls them objects. Both Wallet apps let you generate them, hand them out, and push live updates to the copy that's already on someone's device.
We just released Laravel Mobile Pass, a package that lets you generate those Apple and Google passes from a Laravel app and send updates to already issues passes.
Together with the package, we also published a demo site where you can create Apple Wallet passes and push an update so you can see it all working on your own iOS device.

Over the past few months we've been building There There at Spatie, a support tool shaped by the two decades we've spent running our own customer support. The goal is simple: the helpdesk we always wished we had.
We care about using AI in a particular way. It should help support agents write better replies, not substitute for them. The human stays in charge of the conversation, and the model does the unglamorous work of drafting, rephrasing, and suggesting links. There There is in private beta right now, and you can apply for early access at there-there.app.
We're building There There with Laravel and Inertia, and we lean heavily on the latest features Inertia v3 brings. This post is about another one: prefetching on hover.
A few months ago we started building There There, a helpdesk we're making at Spatie. The premise is simple. After two decades of running customer support for our open source work and our SaaS apps, we wanted the tool we always wished existed.
One thing we care about in particular is using AI to help humans craft better responses, not to replace them. The agent stays in charge of the conversation. The model just helps them reply faster and a little sharper. There There is in private beta right now, and you can apply for early access at there-there.app.
We're building There There with Laravel and Inertia, and we lean heavily on the latest features Inertia v3 brings. In this post I'd like to give one example: optimistic updates.
