Hey Laravel Developers 👩‍💻 Starting with Laravel v12.21.0, we have a new whereValueBetween() method on the query builder object. This method, as the name suggests, allows us to check whether a given value lies between the values of two columns of the same type in a table. This is a very common use case in various applications. For example, you might have a table that stores discount percentages based on the total cart value. Here is a code snippet that illustrates the before and after of how we could fetch the applicable discount percentages. #laravel #php

What if Drupal could natively support async, task queues, and modern PHP runtimes? 🧠 Alexander Varwijk has proposed a bold redesign of Drupal’s core internals—decoupling environment setup from the Kernel and embracing Symfony Runtime. Key goals: • Native async/background task support • Seamless runtime flexibility (FrankenPHP, ReactPHP, etc.) • Cleaner, modular core bootstrapping This opens the door for Drupal as more than a CMS — think long-running workers, real-time apps, AI orchestration.

One of the most complex processes in Laravel application development is creating and managing queues (and jobs, of course). This isn't beginner-level material and requires a solid understanding of application architecture. However, once you master it, once you know how and when to offload tasks, you can unlock new opportunities to optimize performance, manage your application and server resources more efficiently, and significantly speed up your application. #laravel #php #systemarchitecture

💡 Laravel Tip: Move Complex Queries into Query Classes When your Eloquent queries get complex, spreading them across controllers or services can make your code messy. A cleaner solution is to put them into separate Query classes. #Laravel #PHP #LaravelTips #CleanCode #Eloquent #QueryBuilder #WebDevelopment

Ever wish Laravel would just keep looking when a route binding fails? I implemented a custom ignoreMissingBindings macro to hook into the Laravel Core. Perfect for anyone who’s ever wanted graceful fall-through in their routes. ▶️ Watch the full tutorial here: https://lnkd.in/gr6ybjmX 🚨 Unfortunately, this won't work when routes are cached.

PHP and graphics rendering – A revolution in the making What if PHP became a graphics tool? PHP-GLFW makes it possible – and much more! 1. What is PHP-GLFW? PHP-GLFW is an extension that integrates OpenGL and GLFW into PHP. It unlocks new possibilities beyond traditional web development: - GPU-accelerated 2D and 3D rendering - Game development, interactive simulations, and graphical interfaces - Native support for event handling (mouse, keyboard, etc.) 2. Why PHP-GLFW is a game-changer for developers PHP-GLFW pushes PHP beyond its usual limits, turning it into a graphics platform. For developers eager to experiment, this extension allows: - Using PHP fundamentals to create interactive applications - Accessing graphics functionalities without switching languages - Enjoying easy installation (Linux & macOS) 3. Real-world examples to try Want to see PHP in action? PHP-GLFW offers demos like: - FlappyPHPant – A Flappy Bird-style game in PHP - TowerDefense – An interactive tower defense game These demos showcase how PHP can handle interactive environments. 4. A new perspective for PHP developers PHP is no longer just for back-end development. PHP-GLFW introduces an innovative approach to graphical projects. If you don't find the link to this library, send me a DM and I will give it to you. Ready to try PHP-GLFW? Tell me in the comments!

PHP/Laravel devs, what processes/tools do you use in your CI workflows? I've got: PHPUnit, PHPStan, code style fixes (usually StyleCI). I'm wondering if there are any other useful tools/flows I can add? 😄
