Watching Kevin McKee's series on Laravel Filament on #laracasts

Glad to see I'm not the only one who's generating migrations at 3:58am 🦉🌛
A screenshot of Kevin's terminal window from the course video, showing some migrations that have been created with timestamps just after 3:58am

If you're overriding Laravel methods (or methods from any other framework!) to add behaviour, do everyone a favour and make sure to call back to the original parent implementation after your custom behaviour/if your behaviour isn't applicable... please 🥺
public function getTable() { if ($this->someCondition()) { return $this->somethingElse(); } // This doesn't automatically resolve // the table name if the $table property // isn't set! 🙁 return $this->table; } public function getTable() { if ($this->someCondition()) { return $this->somethingElse(); } // Much better! 🙂 return $this->table; }
