phpCE 2017 was held last november in Rawa Mazowiecka in Poland. The organisers recently released videos of all the talks. You'll can watch them all using this YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWKBHVGdyqQKjzraZqkQ69PJQmnGdXrVa
Here's the recording of Hannes Van de Vreken's talk on IoC containers.
Simon Vrachliotis recorded a free Egghead.io video course on the kickass Tailwind CSS framework.
In this course, you'll learn how to handle responsive breakpoints, how to trigger specific element states, how to handle specificity, how to keep your bundle file size in check, and how to seamlessly extend Tailwind with your own custom utility classes. By the end of the course, you should have a firm understanding of how Tailwind works and be able to create your own tailor-made design system and utility class CSS toolkit for your next project!

In a short video posted on YouTube, Shawn McCool explains how you can quickly build an event sourced featured with Commanded.
Like the name implies Nordic.js is a conference that focuses on JavaScript. The organisers recently released all videos of the 2017 edition. Even if you're not into JavaScript I can recommend this watch this video of Harriet Lawrence on how you can use language to make your community more welcoming.
Here's a YouTube playlist with all videos of Nordic.js 2017.
My colleague Sebastian attended the conference, be sure to check out his recap.
Laracon EU 2017 was, like the previous years, an excellent event. Together with 700+ fellow artisans I very much enjoyed watching the talks and meeting people between them. All video's of this edition have recently been made available on YouTube. Here's a handy playlist that contains them all.
I had the honor of speaking at the event as well, here's the video of my talk:
Kotlin is a workhorse language built by the folks at JetBrains (you know, the company that gave the world PHPStorm). It's a superset of Java. In this video by Ross Tuck he tells you more about it and walks you through some of it's nice features.
If want to learn the language I'veen told by Ross that the Kotlin Koans repo is an excellent way to get started.
laravel-medialibrary is probably one of our most powerful packages. It can associate files with Eloquent models. It can also generate derived images such as thumbnails. It has a very developer-friendly API to work with. Here's a quick example:…

Sean Larkin, core team member of Webpack, will be leaving his current job at Mutual of Omaha for a new position at Microsoft. Because on his team he was the one most familiar with the webpack setup of the project, he looked for a way to transfer his knowledge. He landed on creating a video course on webpack that's free for everyone.
I decided to create Webpack Academy, a training and educational platform for those wanting to learn more about webpack. This was a perfect way to not only allow me to give back to my team — by giving them free access to all of the content — but to also benefit the community by sharing it with everyone.
Chris Fideo, of Servers For Hackers and Shipping Docker, published a new free video serious on optimizing performance for Laravel apps. He shows how to use the built in artisan commands such as config:cache and route:cache,how to optimize queries, build up good indexes and how to add an object cache in a clean way.
There are some super common reasons your Laravel app might be slow. This course shows you how to avoid speed issues with simple changes you can implement immediately.

Chris is also a working on a paid course on how to scale Laravel apps. If you want to stay in the loop for that one, subscribe to his newsletter.
This a video of a great lecture Bob Martin gave a couple of years ago. Even if you know the solid principles it's great to hear him talk about the origin of Objective C, what makes object orientation (not) special and so much more.
Here's a little animation made by Wassim Chegham that shows how async/await can clean up your code.
For quite some time, I've been enjoying the DevTools tips that Umar Hansa mails out weekly. I was happy to learn that Umar is also working on a video course focussing on the DevTools. Recently the first video, on image performance on the web, was released.

While working a little bit on laravel-sitemap I decided to refactor the tests to make use of our own snapshot assertions package. The snapshot package enables you to generate snapshots with the output of your tests. On subsequent runs of those tests it can assert if the output still matches the contents of the snapshot.
In this video I demonstrate how the refactor of the tests of laravel-sitemap was done. (double-click on it to view it full-screen)
If you want to know more about snapshot testing, then read this blog post written by my colleague Sebastian. The refactor of the tests can be viewed in this commit on GitHub.
(Little note on the video itself: this is my first tutorial video I ever made. After recording it I noticed that I used a wrong ratio resulting in those black bars on the side. Ah well, you live you learn. Next time it will be better. For those interested, I used a Blue Yeti Pro mic to record my voice and ScreenFlow to record and edit the video.)
Chris Fidao, the hero behind serversforhackers.com, and Deploy PHP!, created a new video course called Shipping Docker. It's in early access right now and it covers everything from the basics to advanced topics like building a multi-server production environment.
I'm only a couple of videos deep in the course, and like expected, I'm liking a lot of what I'm seeing.
This is a comprehensive course in the many uses of Docker. From playing to developing, testing to deploying, we'll cover it all in a way that is easy to understand.
(In case you were wondering, I'm not being paid for posting this)
Gary Hockin posted a video with his attempt in solving the Day 1 challenge of http://adventofcode.com/. The video not only shows how he solved the problem codewise but also demonstrates some nice features of PHPStorm.
Mistakes and all, I attempt to code day 1 part 1 of the Advent of Code challenges you can find at http://adventofcode.com.I deliberately didn't overly edit, or over complicate the video as I'm trying to get them done as fast as possible, if you like this I'll do some more!
I know some people will say "Waaa you should have done it like this!", or "Why didn't you use library $x", well I didn't so get over it. I'm also worried this gives away far too much about my coding quality and how lazy I am, but such is life.
This year's Laracon EU was an amazing conference. The venue was astonishing, there were lots of cool talks and interesting people to talk to. If you're using Laravel or PHP going to this conference really is a no brainer.
If you were unable to attend or want to see the talk you missed during the conference you can now do so. The organisers have uploaded video's of all talks to their YouTube channel.
I had the honor speaking there as well. My talk was about managing backups with Laravel. Here's the video of my first ever conference talk:
At one point during my talk I show this slide on future plans for the package:
I'm proud to say that all that work is already done: version 3 of laravel-backup was made Laravel 5.3 compatible. Version 4 of the package uses Laravel 5.3's native notifications and uses PHP 7 features to keep the code clear. The db-dumper package, which is used under the hood, was rewritten and is now easier to use.
I'll definitely go to the next Laracon EU conference and hope to see you there too.
