Accidentally left an AirTag in my lease car when it was collected. It’s been fun to see my old car go on holiday.

The Laravel community is something else. There's folks finding the framework for the first time, and those who have been building since the start, all in one room - excited to talk about everything and anything Laravel.

It only felt right that a good chunk of it was written from the best bakery in Romsey. I've been part of the Laravel community for over ten years. Getting to share something on stage in Amsterdam feels like a real moment. See you there 👋

When Zuzana, Dan and I started Laravel London we chatted through a few non-negotiables for us - Every event should feel safe and welcoming - Speakers should be looked after - A code of conduct We have an excellent speaker lineup for March's event, grab your ticket luma.com/laravel-london

A few months ago, I shipped something a little different. The day Laravel for the rest of us went live, was unlike anything i've been a part of. After a year of writing and planning, it was out there. No more edits, notes or tweaks. laravelfortherestofus.com

In a month, i'll be taking to the stage at Laracon EU! 10 years ago, I ran my first 'Laravel New'. Since then it's been a whirlwind. It's been a pleasure to be a part of this community that so often gives more than it takes. If you're heading to Amsterdam for Laracon EU, do say hello!

I met James Brooks for the first time at Laracon US this year. We chatted about the UK, our kids and Laravel. I shared that we were in the draft stage of Laravel for the rest of us, and he without hesitation offered to read it and provide feedback.

Duncan McClean, is one of the most talented developers to have worked at Steadfast Collective. Now a core member of the Statamic team, i'm delighted he was an early reader of Laravel for the rest of us. As well as providing some excellent feedback, he had these kind words to say.

Perhaps it's time you start treating guests to your website, like guests at a restaurant. I just stepped off stage at BrightonSEO, where I had the chance to share about crafting landing pages that convert.
