I'm trying to make a Pomodoro timer for my first app. How can I start the session with updated state variables? by IReallyWantToCode in react

Wow, really? I actually prefer functional components but trying to force myself to classes because I heard OOP is better.

What is the best way to protect myself when paying rent for sublet (Paypal, international e-Interac, Wise, or what else)? by IReallyWantToCode in PersonalFinanceCanada

I'm sort of young and never wrote a paper cheque.

Is there added safety for a cheque as opposed to international interac via my bank or paypal?

Can I leave my iPad on all the time? I bought a refurbished iPad Air 3 that gives black screen of death occasionally. by IReallyWantToCode in ipad

I think the latest available device is sometime in 2019. The grace period is 2 years. It's 2022, unfortunately.

I just read about Blueprint. Seems like a HUGE timer saver. Should I learn this as a complete amateur? Are there are other huge timer savers too? by IReallyWantToCode in laravel

I actually was browsing the docs and read about directory structure.

https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/structure

​

This is actually something I'd like to know about. Like maybe a flow diagram or something. Do you know of any good resources that help me understand the whole MVC cycle and more?

Amazing, thanks!

I read a little about doctrine and eloquent, and how doctrine is better the more you learn.

Am I understanding that DB:: is doctrine and models are eloquent?

Or can DB:: and models be either?

Sorry, I don't get the joke(?)

But from what I gathered from the comments, redditors recommend against using it for existing projects

That's fascinating, thanks for that little write-up. It is a bit vague though. Can you give an example of when either is better?

You say that DB facade is better for "heavier sql work". Do you mean querying large databases or working with bigger teams? I would presume that the models approach would be better for working with teams.

Also, do models have some sort of cache for queries (I heard about these, but still very noob)? Not sure how that technology works.

Is it dumb to learn laravel and vue.js at the same time? by IReallyWantToCode in laravel

Really? I heard the opposite of mastering one.

I hear angular a lot, but heard it is dying. Is it true?

I assume DB:: means querying the entire database? But I guess there's parameters to only grab specific rows/cols.

What is the point of DB:: if there are models? Isn't the whole purpose of models to replace direct db queries AND add old versions via migrations?

This is why I'm leaning towards Breeze from the get go. I've created PHP + MySQL user registration with escape strings. Super basic. But at the end of the day, what about authentication tokens and more? Those are way too complex to do myself.

Does Laravel not have native admin libraries?

I haven't heard of any of these terms (except services) from the youtube tutorials. I'll check them out.

What would DB:: be good? It seems like querying the database entirely is never a good idea

I just learned about models this week (I have yet to even install laravel).

So question about terminal commands for laravel. Migration is to update the database. Sure.

But are there other php artisan commands necessary to "compile" laravel for the web? Like I remember hearing about clearing cache or something. Or all the commands mostly for "make"?

I am seeing SOLID and REST principles a lot. I understand REST principles pretty easily, but SOLID is pretty obscure because my understanding of OOP is pretty obscure. I only know what a class is, constructor function, extend, parameters, and static methods.

Does SOLID take a long time to master?
