It’s been a while since I don’t do freelancing, but I’ll be opening between 6h to 8h a week for the next couple of weeks. I work with PHP since 2009 and with Laravel since 2015. I can also work with Go, Python and front end stuff xD
PHP/Laravel Tip 🚀 When you have two cases for Custom Exceptions related to the same Domain, instead of creating multiple Exception classes, you can use a single class with different methods! Cleaner and more organised codebase FTW! 💪🔥

The FOMO for Laracon US is HUGE!!! 😅😅😅 I miss going to events 🥲

EBOOK UPDATE 🔥 Best Practices for Laravel Enterprise Applications I'm not even on half of it - between 1/3 and 1/2 - and it already has 32 pages. I thought it would be a total of 50 pages or so at the beginning, but I'm now thinking it will turn out to be more than that! 🔥🚀

I've been back to being more active in X for the last 10 days, and this is the result of this consistency! 🔥💪🚀

Laravel tip. Use `value()` to get a single column value from the first matching record. Skip getting the full objects when you only need one field. Returns the actual value, not a model or collection. Link to the docs: laravel.com/docs/12.x/quer… #practicalLaravelDocs
Laravel Tip 🚀 Did you ever need to inject a value from a Middleware to a Controller, but didn't know how to do it? You can inject values into the Request and use them in a very easy way! Check out this example! 🔥

People using @warpdotdev for agentic coding, I started using it today, and I have some doubts that I'm not finding in the docs: 1 - Is there a way to create rules for specific codebases? 2 - Is there a way to share rules with a team?
When buying a domain, does it matter to be a .com one in terms of visibility and SEO or other ones like .app can be used without issues? Sometimes finding a nice .com domain is hard and I kinda like the .app alternative!
Damn… Ozzy died 😞 I watched the stream of the Back to the Beginning event and it was AWESOME! 🤘🏻 I felt very emotional because Ozzy and Black Sabbath were a HUGE part of my teen years and a HUGE influence in music for me. RIP knowing that your legacy will be carried forward!…
IDK if it's because of the content or if it's something related to my account or just the algorithm changed since I last posted tips here before, but my 2 tips posts from yesterday and today are performing like 💩
