My colleague Brent offers some insights on a big project we're currently working on at Spatie.
The month May marks the first year anniversary of a client project I've been working on at Spatie. I thought it useful to share some statistics with the community, and give you a feeling of what a "real life web project" might look like.

When a request comes in your app will return a response. To create that response, your application has to do some work. Most likely queries will execute. This all takes some time. Wouldn't it be nice if the same request comes in, we can return the response the application has constructed previously?
laravel-validation-rules is a package that contains handy custom validation rules that are being used in various client projects we made at Spatie. Last week I added a new validate rule called Delimited to the package.
In this blog post, I'd like to explain why we added it and how it can be used.
The last few months I gave a talk on how to get started with event sourcing at several conferences and user groups. I took the time to record the talk at home. It's now published on YouTube so everybody can enjoy it.
Recently we've released v2 of laravel-event-projector. The package is probably the easiest way to get started with event sourcing in Laravel. In v2 we've introduced two "invisible" features that improve the developer experience: auto-detection of event handling methods and auto-discovery of event handlers.
Recently we've released v2 of laravel-event-projector. The package is probably the easiest way to get started with event sourcing in Laravel.
One of the prominent new features is support for aggregates. While creating v2, I found it surprising that such a powerful concept could be implemented in so little code. In this short blog post, I'd like to explain how aggregates are coded up.
Our laravel-query-builder package exposed a serious security issue: it allowed SQL injection attacks. Laravel Query Builder v1.17.1, which is now available, fixes the vulnerability. If you're using the package, stop reading now and upgrade to the latest version first. For Laravel 5.6, 5.7 and 5.8…
Laravel event projector is a package that aims to be the entry point for event sourcing in Laravel. It can help you setting up aggregates, projectors and reactors. Earlier today our team released v2. This version streamlines the projectors and reactors from v1 and adds support for aggregates.
In this blogpost I'd like to explain a potential problem with traditionally built applications. After that we'll take a look at what projectors and aggregates are. Finally we'll walk through an example how you can create an aggregate laravel-event-projector.
Our team at Spatie released new package called laravel-queuable-action. On his blog, my colleague Brent explains why we created it and how you can use it.
By introducing the concept of actions, we're able to separate responsibilities between classes better: jobs are used for data serialisation and executing tasks asynchronously; but they are not concerned with business logic anymore.

For the past few years, we've been using the laracasts/flash package to flash messages in all projects. In case you don't know: a flash message is a message that is being passed from a request to only the next request. The Laracasts package does its job pretty well. It has support for multiple flash messages, overlay messages. It comes with bootstrap styling out of the box and a few messaging levels preconfigured.
We've noticed that in our projects we only use a tiny bit of functionality from the laracasts/flash. That's why we whipped up our own lightweight package called spatie/laravel-flash. In this blog post, I'd like to introduce it to you.
One of the good things that GDPR brought us was the right to data portability. Shortly put, this means that an app should be able to export all data that it has for a user.
Because we have multiple apps at Spatie that need to create such an export, we decided to extract our solution to a package called laravel-personal-data-export. In this blog post, I'd like to introduce the package to you.
Recently we released a new package called enum. In a new post on his blog Brent tells you what the benefit of working with enums is and how our package differs from the alternatives.
Today I want to explore some of the difficulties we encounter when solving problems like enums in userland. I'll talk about my personal take on enums, and we'll ponder on core support.

Laravel comes with a very handy tinker command out of the box. Unfortunately running multiple lines of code on the command line, or editing the code you just executed, can be a bit bothersome. That's why we created a new package called laravel-web-tinker that allows you to run arbitrary code in your…
The past few days videos have been added to the Laracon EU channel on YouTube. It now contains recordings of all talks given at the 2018 edition of the conference.

When adding a form to a public site, there's a risk that spam bots will try to submit it with fake values. We recently released a new package, called laravel-honeypot, that can detect these spammy requests. How honeypots work The majority of spam bots are pretty dumb. You can thwart most of them by…
Now that 2018 is coming to a close, a lot of awesome people have written a recap post. Here's mine! The most significant change on a personal level is that my girlfriend an I bought a house in Ghent. Together with our two kids, we moved this summer, and we now live in an awesome house that's very…
In a post on Laravel News, Tim MacDonald shares how you can use our valuestore package to power a settings function.
I really like the simplicity this package introduces to enable you to store some loose values. I’ve always felt storing this kind of data in the database with some sort of key / value pair setup was never quite right.
