We've already covered a lot of ground in this series. Let's finish by highlighting some miscellaneous interesting tidbits.
Our company has created a lot of open-source packages. At the moment of writing, we have over 200 packages, which have been downloaded nearly 100 million times. Because we think the package users might be interested in our paid offerings as well, we've put a small ad in the readme of each repo. In this blogpost I'll explain how we manage these ads using Laravel Nova and S3.
We'd like to stay in touch with the people interested in our products by sending them emails when we got some news on an upcoming product, or when we are running a promo for existing products. To handle subscriptions and send out emails, we use our home-grown Laravel package Mailcoach. Let's take a look at how we use Mailcoach ourselves.
On our site you'll find the documentation of our bigger bigger packages, like laravel-medialibrary, laravel-backup, laravel-event-sourcing, ... Let's take a look at how that works.
On our website, we have a video section. All our videos uploaded to and handled via Vimeo where we have a Pro subscription. We chose Vimeo because it has an excellent widget to display videos, it converts our videos very fast, and it has a nice API to work with. Let's take a look at how Vimeo is integrated in our site.
On our Laravel powered company website we sell digital products: video courses, e-books, and software packages. Behind the scenes we use Laravel, Paddle, Vimeo, the GitHub API and a couple of other things.
We've open-sourced our site. You'll find the actual code we have deployed in the spatie-be repo on GitHub. In this blog post, I'll guide you through the code.
Some of our products, like Mailcoach and Media Library Pro, are PHP packages for which people can buy a time-limited license. Of course, we want customers to be able to install our paid packages using Composer. Our paid packages are not registered on Packagist, because Packagist is meant to be used for free packages, and there's no way to handle licenses. Let's take a look at how we can solve this using Satis.
