Only after so many years of using Laravel, I just found out that an empty dd() call dumps the bug emoji on your page… 🐛
Nice one! 😂

Have you seen the new factory “insert” method introduced in last week’s Laravel release?
Just used it to refactor store creation for the Filament Themes demo — so much cleaner. 🤤
Thanks @cosmastech.bsky.social! 🫶

Pro tips when using Git hooks in your Laravel project 👇
1. Store hooks in .hooks to version them with Git.
2. Add "git config core.hooksPath .hooks" to your Composer setup script to link the hooks during setup after cloning the repo.
Super easy, zero dependencies.

I stopped using em dashes — afraid they made everything I write look like ChatGPT.

I just set up pre-commit Git hooks in all my projects—should’ve done this much sooner!
No more manually running commands or waiting on CI pipelines.

I’m wondering if PHP property hooks can fully replace Laravel’s accessors and mutators on Eloquent models.
Has anyone tried relying only on native hooks instead of Eloquent’s feature?
Any limitations you’ve hit?

Okay, I found the perfect way to write Blade + Alpine.js components. 👇
Blade, CSS, and JS, all grouped in a single component folder.
Can’t imagine doing it any other way now…

Using PHP property hooks a lot lately.
Absolutely love this “memoized computed property” pattern. It ensures computationally heavy class properties are calculated only once, even when accessed multiple times.
So much cleaner than a separate method and property. 🤤

Did you know @filamentphp can auto-discover custom Livewire components in your panel?
Just like it does for resources, pages, and widgets. Perfect for keeping panel-specific components organized, scoped to the panel, and alongside your main folders. 👌

Did you know macOS now has a clipboard manager built into Spotlight? (Only took them how many years? 😂)
Just press command + space and then command + 4.
Really digging the Spotlight improvements in macOS Tahoe in general! 👍

Had an interesting session helping architect an internal Filament plugin.
Explored how Filament’s core patterns can be applied to custom plugins to improve flexibility and maintainability.
It always excites me to see what you’re all working on 😄

Fun fact:
Laravel’s latest products, Nightwatch and Cloud, also follow the single-password-field pattern at sign-up! 😄
Laravel Cloud even leaves out the name field. Makes me wonder if that would be an even better approach...

Unpopular opinion: “Confirm password” fields are bad.
Forcing users to enter passwords twice adds friction and lowers conversion rates.
Why optimize for a couple users who make a typo? Just let them reset their password.
More friction for a few, less friction for most. 👌

Just realized using maxlength on HTML inputs is terrible for UX.
Users get no clear signal when they suddenly can’t type more characters, and when pasting, they may not even notice that their text was truncated.
Much better to allow any length and validate on the backend. 🔙🔚
