I had a blast at this year's PHP UK Conference. There were some amazing sessions and interesting people to talk to. Together with Hannes, I even started a little hobby project.
If you weren't able to attend, you'll be glad to know that all talks were recorded and are available now on YouTube.
Over at Envato Tuts Matthew Machuga published a video explaining Laravel's router code. Going over Laravel's internal code (and other people's code in general) is always good method of learning new bits 'n' tricks.
In this lesson, we’ll explore the intricacies of Laravel Router. We’ll talk about the fundamentals of HTTP routing, before we go on to analyze some of the decisions and nuances in the design of Laravel Router. We’ll also talk about some of the awesome features that have been recently added to the router.http://code.tutsplus.com/courses/how-its-made-laravel-router/lessons/how-its-made-laravel-router
Can't get enough Machuga? Then listen to the Full Stack Radio podcast, he's been a guest there several times. He's also one of the speakers of this year's Laracon US.

Yesterday our local user group, PHP Antwerp, held it's third meetup. There were two excellent speakers and a bunch of familiar faces.
First up was Gabriel Somoza who talked about his project Baleen. It's goal is to provide an intuitive framework to migrate almost anything. You can view his slides on Speakerdeck.
The second speaker was Marco Pivetta, better known on the interwebs as Ocramius. He is a member of the Doctrine core team. His talk was about best practices when using Doctrine. His slides can be found on GitHub. Here's the video of the talk:

Spatie, of which I'm a partner, sponsored the meetup. Before Marco's talk I got the opportunity to talk a bit myself about why my company is sponsoring the local user group. My short talk can be viewed on YouTube.
The organisers announced that the next meetup will be held at the end of March. If you're living in the vicinity of Antwerp, you should definitely attend.
Beau Simensen gave a good overview of PSR-7 at the recent PHP North West conference.

Wes Bos released a series of videos on React.js.
Together, we will build “Catch of the Day” — a real-time app for a trendy seafood market where price and quantity available are variable and can change at a moments notice. We will build a menu, an order form, and an inventory management area where authorized users can immediately update product details.Wes has released some really learning resources on, amongst others the terminal, sublime. A while ago he also appeared on Full Stack Radio. I'm pretty sure his new batch of videos will be top notch!

Watch it on Vimeo.In object-oriented development, we are all familiar with design patterns such as the Strategy pattern and Decorator pattern, and design principles such as SOLID.
The functional programming community has design patterns and principles as well.This talk will provide an overview of some of these, and present some demonstrations of FP design in practice.
Watch a very instructive live coding session with Matthias Verraes.
Under the pressure of deadlines and endless change requests, under the weight of years of legacy, code becomes unmaintainable. With the right tools, techniques, and mindset, any codebase can be brought under test, and be refactored towards a better architecture. Let's skip the theory and dive straight into the spaghetti code. In a live coding session, I will demonstrate how you can start refactoring your way out of a mess today.

The PHP UK Conference had a great schedule this year. Most sessions were recorded and are now available on YouTube. Happy viewing!
A list of interesting conference talks and videos on PHP.
Matt Stauffer shows how he built Gistlog in under two hours.
Gistlog is a blogging "platform" for people who want to quickly write and publish content, in Markdown, and don't want to bother with yet another platform and yet another login and yet another group hoarding their content. With Gistlog, you use your pre-existing Github login, you store the data in your own Github account, and you can publish with a single click.A must see if you want to know how to get things done quickly in Laravel.
