Needed a simple lightbox plugin for Alpine.js so I threw this together over the weekend. Just add x-zoomable to your img tag. Available on npm or via cdn: github.com/benbjurstrom...

My ideal Laravel login page looks something like this. Really don't like being responsible for user's passwords.

Pretty happy with the API I settled on for [pgvector-scout](github.com/benbjurstrom...). Can set the index at the model level which then corresponds to a config value.

Added search to my Laravel markdown blogging engine. It's backed by an sqlite index so it should be somewhat performant. See it in action on the docs site at prezet.com Also thanks to @pixelcave-john.bsky.social for the pinemix.com command palette component.

How can you search your data for a concept. Not a keyword. But rather something more abstract, like a category?

Just tagged the first release of a Laravel Scout driver for pgvector search. Scout pairs perfectly with pgvector since its model observers keep the vector embeddings up to date. github.com/benbjurstrom...

This might actually be my favourite feature of PHP 8.4, such a small thing, but it'll be so great 😅

Just finished listening to this. Apparently Nightwatch runs a local agent that can batch up the metrics and send them off independent of the request. Meaning your Laravel app doesn’t need to make any extra outgoing HTTP or database requests. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Excellent talk by @mandymichael.bsky.social on optimizing your HTML. I’ve used many of the HTML features mentioned, but never really understood how they work.

Since we're talking about kitchen items, I'm a big fan of this Chinese vegetable cleaver. The extra surface area helped me dial in a proper claw technique.

Tip: It's easy to setup a custom folder and controller if you have markdown files that you want to render with Prezet that shouldn't appear in your blog index. Handy for things like privacy policies and terms of service agreements.

Added a new blade component to Prezet. Now you can add alert style callouts to your markdown.

Many forms of CSS have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that @tailwindcss is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that @tailwindcss is the worst form of CSS except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to

Used @SourcegraphCody to generate some Pest PHP tests for a package I've been working on. Claude 3 Opus still seems to be miles ahead of GPT-4o for Laravel stuff. If you're curious about the quality of the tests I'll link them in a reply below.
