🚀 I've made the Turbo Laravel package public. This package provides some backend support to apply Hotwire in Laravel. It's not battle tested yet, so I would love your help and feedback to make it better. All contributions are welcomed. Repo: github.com/tonysm/turbo-lara…

You may have heard of Blaze, the new tool from the @LaravelLivewire team that speeds up Blade. But did you know how it works? From folding to function compilation, we break down its optimization strategies, and even build a mini version to understand it. tighten.com/insights/blaze-u…

Delegated Types is one of my favorite Active Record patterns! It surfaces the invisible hierarchy in polymorphic relations, lets you define richer models and their nesting, track data changes on the type cleanly, and so much more. Had fun writing this one!
Polymorphic relations are great, but complexity grows w/ each shared behavior. Delegated types flip this on its head, building a first-class entity for shared behavior! Fewer entry points, less repetition, cleaner design. @tonysmdev wrote about it here: tighten.com/insights/delegat…

Parental, our Single-Table-Inheritance package, has a new release: v1.5.0! • Models can now transition from one child type to another, with become() • You can store child type as integers instead of strings • Eager loading children is even easier than ever

I've made some changes to the Hotwire Starter Kit. Following the official Laravel Starter Kits, it now has 2FA and the auth-related routes were replaced w/ Fortify! Also, Rails has Fizzy & Campfire as demo Hotwire apps, we'll have one for Laravel soon... world.hey.com/tonysm/hotwire…

New video is out! With Turbo.js, we can deliver Turbo Streams in 3 ways: adding to the DOM, returning a special document that only contains Turbo Stream tags with a custom MIME type, or broadcasting via WS/SSE. Let's see how we can add a 4th way: HTTP Streaming (link in 🧵)

New video on how we can deploy Laravel apps with Kamal (V2!) is out! This demo app uses MySQL, Ollama, and it hints at something we'll cover in the next video: being able to stream Turbo Streams directly from HTTP (link in 🧵)

Hotwire Native v1.2 launched with two exciting updates: new tab bar components and a fresh demo app! I’m so excited for the new first-party tab bar components that I created a 15 minute video on how to add them to brand new Hotwire Native apps. youtube.com/watch?v=qGBlFzmy…

I recently gave a talk about Hotwire Native (and Hotwire 101) for Laravel Devs. Decided to record it and share. I cover Hotwire for the web, then jump into Hotwire Native. There's a demo app at the end where I show most of what I cover in the talk. I hope you enjoy it! Link in 🧵

As of today, Docker is the only dependency needed to use Takeout. We're packaging it in a Docker image, so you don't even need PHP installed locally to use it. Switch to the new installation path (it's just an alias now) and spin up those accessory services in no time. Enjoy! 🎉
For a few years, Takeout has been the best way to spin up local development services--MySQL, ClickHouse, Minio, and more--for PHP developers. With today's release, you no longer need PHP to use Takeout! Take a look at the link below to learn more:
