They go over the branding, everything he did the morning of the launch, building the site with Gemini, and so much more.
Plus the world championship of….bagels?

I met James Brooks for the first time at Laracon US this year.
We chatted about the UK, our kids and Laravel.
I shared that we were in the draft stage of Laravel for the rest of us, and he without hesitation offered to read it and provide feedback.
