Flux uses Tiptap for its Editor component - offering incredible interoperability with Statamic's Bard fieldtype. With one catch: Flux's implementation returns HTML.

Never fear, @joshhanley.au paired with me to help tweak the getter to get JSON instead.

To all of those social butterflies in Denver - enjoy Laracon!

Don’t forget to keep an eye out for someone seeming on the outer, someone needing to feel included, someone needing a smile.

There are lots of invisible developers out there.

Try to do something that can help others feel seen.

Quick poll for a security friend. If you are a dev:

Do you know what threat modeling is?
Do you do it?
Why or why not?
If so what does that look like for you?

We're still accepting submissions to speak at this year's #LaraconAU in Brisbane on November 13-14.

Could be a Laravel-specific talk, an adjacent topic! Refactored an old app to Livewire? React + Inertia? Discuss accessibility?

Submit to speak, and you could be on our stage!

🔥 Want to use light mode on just one flux component in your otherwise dark-mode app?
@custom-variant dark (&:where(.dark, .dark *):not(:has(.light), .light *));

About links, bluesky loves them. Please unlearn the link-in-reply tricks you've been doing elsewhere and proudly share your blog posts, videos, or any other external link in your top posts so we can all go and visit your fancy websites and then get back here to discuss and repost them. Thanks!

Not only is X throttling external links, but it is also messing with its public pages. Without an account, you don't see the conversation if you go to a post. Instead, you get ads to sign up. If you visit profiles, the latest posts are not there. Useless for microblogging. Harmful to the open web.
A post by Adam Rackis to X: There's a gigantic thread over at the Butterfly site where people are again trying to officially deprecate / fix / whatever create-react-app. @theo was even mentioned a few times 😂 There are 12 replies, but are not shown. You need to sign up to see them. There is an error in the right sidebar. A footer trying to sign you up, and a big sign in widget in the right sidebar.

Respect to @tim.macdonald.au and the Laravel community for understanding the decision to release breaking changes in a patch and gracefully handling the disruption to their users. And shoutout to other maintainers in the ecosystem for helping their users upgrade and stay safe.

To 2.0 or not 2.0, that is the question.

From Caleb:
> Should we tag a new major version of Flux (2.0) with Tailwind 4 support?

> Or try to support both Tailwind 3 and 4 in the current version (might require some gross config/hackery)

I'm going to share my journey with learning new things, starting with my experiences with Livewire.

And of course my personal ramblings and insecurities, but hey, that's natural with me, right?

I'd love for you to join in on the conversation!
