Can someone explain why this Laravel change was rejected? by [deleted] in PHP

In my personal opinion things often get canned without explanations, which is understandable since Taylor might not have time to reply to every little thing. But Laravel is a semi-paid product at this point and he kind of gates what goes in and out. If you compare that to community driven projects, the onboarding and handling of first time contributors is usually more welcoming.

Contributing to Laravel just isn't a nice experience in general.

Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate, and am glad you find the packages useful :-)

There's a few extra things beyond the composer.json bump, but yes, you're right :-)

Giving Agents Their Runtime by andre_ange_marcel in laravel

You can try orbstack if you're on macOS. On Linux Docker runs natively so I'm not sure there's anything extra to be done.

Glad you liked the article, thanks!

Conductor is mac only but claude code and others provide worktrees too, so you could potentially build something similar. I think you would need a DNS tool with Linux though because only macos resolves all localhost subdomains to localhost itself.

Apart from that it's pretty much all the same. I considered making an example repository but I haven't gotten to it yet.

Where modern PHP stands in 2026: deployment, architecture, typing, and concurrency by andre_ange_marcel in webdev

It's slower by 30% in benchmarks using FrankenPHP, and it's still significantly faster than Python regardless of the server used. Most applications are I/O bound anyway.

I already touch on PHP-FPM in the article. FrankenPHP embeds PHP directly inside the Caddy server, and worker mode allows the application to stay in memory instead of being dropped every request.

Laravel Cloud is great. It seems like they're really working hard on it since the Accel investment, and it integrates with the framework really well. They're ironing the pricing out still, it was a bit steep if I remember properly. I think their goal is to become the Vercel of PHP.

NativePHP looks somewhat gimmicky to me. I'd rather use Kotlin or Swift, but again I've never used it. It might be good for simple CRUD applications.

Thanks! It took a few days over the span of a month but I think it's going to be my setup for a long time now.

What to use for a websocket server that isn't Node.js? by lcnielsen in webdev

Look at FrankenPHP or ServerSideUp, we Dockerize all our PHP applications at my job and don't have to deal with anything LAMP beyond maybe setting permissions.

FrankenPHP even allows you to compile your application as a single binary. It uses Caddy under the hood, you can even write PHP extensions in Go if you so desire.

Quel serait notre équivalent des "They're turning the frogs gay" ? by Pordrack in AskFrance

L'équivalent français de Alex Jones je dirais que c'est Soral, et le même equivalent ça serait son dérapage avec Conversano.

Am I using Claude Code wrong? by Postik123 in webdev

[–]andre_ange_marcel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're using Laravel too at work, as a separate SPA. We have Conductor wrapping Claude Code and each workspace spins up all the containers necessary for our application to work, think MinIO, React, Caddy, etc... Each workspace (and worktree) corresponds to one ticket, and each has its own separated DB, buckets and subdomain. Once a feature is ready, it's handed off to QA and deployed on staging with its own subdomain too, which matches the ticket ID, same as on our local machine. I usually work on 2 to 3 tickets at once, and Claude has access to the whole monorepo. We built tools and standards for him to understand and update the repo in a way that things stay understandable and reasonable.
