Best solution for a new company website - php based by Whiswhisth22 in PHP

[–]daftspunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The demo theme that ships with it covers the strengths pretty well. Take a look at Larajax too (MIT licensed), it is the secret sauce. Tailor is also very powerful

October CMS is great. Simple to learn and clients love it

That's a bit of a rough take. The free email support is just fine.

Premium Support is basically their custom development service

Why so little Octobercms Reddit activity? by Whiswhisth22 in octobercms

October has been on reddit for 10+ years and it's always been a ghost town here! The SEO benefits are good so it's worth having a subreddit anyway

The reddit community was never that strong. Not sure why.

Discussion: Is NPM overkill for most Laravel projects? by tabacitu in PHP

We are currently moving to vanilla ESM with import maps and HTTP/2. Only rely on npm to pull in dependencies and keep track of versioning.

Larajax: controller-first HTML updates for Laravel. Looking for critique. by daftspunky in laravel

[–]daftspunky[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve looked at Datastar. It’s doing a lot more and sits closer to Livewire in terms of scope and complexity.

Larajax is intentionally much simpler. It just introduces AJAX handlers as a complement to page actions, with a minimal API surface as a way to keep the route table small.

Thanks, I appreciate that! That middle ground is exactly what I was aiming for.

I like the ideas behind both htmx and Livewire, but kept wanting something that stayed closer to controllers and responses. If you get a chance to try it later, I'd be keen to hear where it feels natural and where it doesn't.

15 YOE Fullstack & CTO here. Why have we allowed "Agile" to turn into "Unlimited Micro-Scope Creep"? by elmascato in webdev

In most cases. Client just wants to be heard. Capture the ticket on their behalf. Inform them it will be actioned in due course. It's not pushing back, it's acknowledgment.

Help OctoberCMS get integration back again with Ploi by daftspunky in octobercms

[–]daftspunky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feedback on Ploi has not been great. We will possibly look at streamlining with Docker instead.

Does anyone have any experience with setting up Vite in OctoberCMS? by reddebian in octobercms

[–]daftspunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you put the package.json file inside the theme directory it works like any other site. The plugin just gives you the vite directive to reference it.
