Supercharge Markdown with Laravel

you are great !! but i have a question can i do mobile app with laravel

I was caught completely off guard when you switched from dark to light mode without warning. I am now legally blind.

I was wondering, how did you get that little contextual comment in your var dumper that shows the file containing the function call? Big fan of using var dumper in everything I make, but have never made anything in Laravel. Is it something Laravel does with the var dumper component?

Absolutely love how concise and light-hearted your content is, thankyou for valuing our attention!

I have never used static::$var I always use self::$var... any pros or cons?

# Summary

Great video, I think that the first option is more safe to use? Am I wrong? 🤔

I like to use Laravel, but i want to make a static website; I know is overkill, but should i really check other options or can i do it no problem with Laravel?

Thanks for amazing video! Was actually dreading trying to figure out how to setup markdown to look nice this week, and now im excited :D

i was hoping to see Vue component block along with blade :)

Great video! Regarding the safe rendering; I also use Markdown + Blade, however instead of doing it the way you did, I decided to use the package by spatie "sheets". Never thought of the Blade code issue, so I decided to check. And sheets seems to handle it for me already! So perhaps a good choice for some people if you don't mind relying on a 3rd party package

I am unreasonably happy that you said "I'm the captain now" for (at least) the second time in a video 👏👏👏

Hey Aaron, great video as always (because PHP). What patern is your way to go for really large Laravel app?

The way you narrate is eerily similar to how I actually talk to myself when coding. 😅

Is markdown a replacement for HTML and XML? Why are so many different markdown languages needed?
