@genericrohan @aschmelyun Exactly 💯

[Gio 🐘 @GioDev8]

@koomai @aschmelyun Yea when it becomes repetitive or tedious

@PovilasKorop I'm trying to decide if I should start an AI focused channel or keep my current channel and pivot there. Do you think your main channel would've continued growth if you started publishing AI videos there?

[Gio 🐘 @GioDev8]

@aschmelyun @laravelphp That's awesome man, congratulations 🎉

[Gio 🐘 @GioDev8]

@PovilasKorop @filamentphp That's awesome man, congrats! Looking forward to catching up again.

Maybe one day I'll work up the courage to submit a talk myself, stage fright is real heh 🫣

LLMs are just so good with Laravel it almost feels like a cheat code. As long as you define proper guidelines, rules, and constraints, they can really ship apps fast.

I had Claude build me custom commands to spin up new Laravel projects with Docker and all the tools I use preconfigured (Rector, PHPStan, some default Claude skills, Laravel Boost, Laravel AI, etc.)

Side note: I'm playing around with an app I've always wanted to build, experimenting with having Claude build it entirely using the rules and constraints I've set up. I only check in to review. So far it's gotten 95% of the patterns right, and I'll ship it soon.

@ea_dequilla001 There is really no "best". It depends on your requirements and preferences. Livewire is fine but I personally don't use it. I've been working with React and Tailwind sometimes with Inertia combination.

Part 4 of the Laravel series is live where we wrap things up with testing, profile page, and automated deploys.

This completes my Learn Laravel The Right Way series!

@bhaidar Since I don't post often on X, I think X has doomed my posts and they don't show up on many feeds

[Gio 🐘 @GioDev8]

@Edmondif143061 Nope, just a beginner friendly app to learn Laravel

@jeffrey_way Building this as well. I always wanted to build one that's not confusing.

Are you using plaid or statement upload?

AI is great, but, it can take you down the wrong path. If I were "vibe coding" this app without questioning and pushing back on decisions, it would've had a potential for a major data leak.

Still a huge time saver though. I'm spending a lot of time planning to implement fast.

Part 3 of the Laravel series is live. In Part 1, we laid the foundation, in part 2 we built most of business logic. Now, we build dashboard, refactor to actions, and talk about code quality tools.

Go check it out, link in the next tweet!

@aschmelyun This is great stuff man. Really cool project

Coding was not the problem, I agree with that. But translating vision into software was, is and will be.

It's figuring out what the product actually needs to do, making tradeoffs between competing priorities, understanding edge cases that nobody thought about, coordinating across teams, reviewing whether the solution is actually correct, and maintaining it over years.

I have yet to see AI accomplish this. It's a force multiplier but I'll wait till the end of this year to see if I'm wrong.

Elon Musk thinks coding dies this year.

Not evolves. Dies.

By December, AI won’t need programming languages. It generates machine code directly. Binary optimized beyond anything human logic could produce. No translation. No compilation. Just pure execution.

Musk: “You don’t even bother doing coding.”

Code was never the point. It was friction. A tax we paid because machines didn’t speak human. AI just learned fluent human. The tax is gone.

Now plug that into Neuralink. No syntax. No keyboard. No screen.

Musk: “Imagination-to-software.”

Thought becomes executable. You imagine an outcome, the system architects and compiles it into reality instantly.

We’re not automating programming. We’re erasing it from existence.

The entire profession collapses into a thought. Decades of training reduced to irrelevance. The gap between idea and instantiation hits zero.

You don’t build anymore. You imagine, and it materializes.

Not incremental progress. Total phase shift. The way humans have created things for ten thousand years just became obsolete.

Welcome to a world where the limiting factor isn’t skill, resources, or time. It’s whether you can picture what you want clearly enough for a machine to birth it into existence.

Part 2 (~5 hrs) of the Laravel series is live. In Part 1, we laid the foundation. Now, we build the Core Logic.

But we don't just write code to make it work. While building the "easy" parts, we cover a ton of important architectural topics and dive into various rabbit holes, touching on everything from strict Authorization & Policies to specific techniques for optimizing our code (like Chunking, Batch Inserts, and more).
