I just open-sourced Noerd — a Laravel Livewire 4 package for admin panels and business apps.

→ Multi-tenant architecture with data isolation
→ YAML-driven lists, detail views & navigation
→ Multi-language admin panel
→ App management for custom business apps

It's still early and I'd really appreciate any feedback or thoughts!

Laravel MCP 1.0 is here 🎉

This is a big protocol upgrade with support for MCP version 2026-07-28.

Stateless servers, searchable tool catalogs, caching, improved OAuth, MCP Apps updates, and a lot more.

Quick thread 🧵

Just shipped noerd/notifications

A bell in the top bar for every noerd app: unread badge, mark all as read, and one click opens the record.

Send from anywhere, even queued jobs. No WebSockets needed.

Claude or Codex can write your own PRs but @ryangjchandler thinks you should instead. Read why writing them yourself makes you a better engineer and a better teammate.

Before AI, I wrote Laravel's docs for humans... enough technical depth to teach without overwhelming you, documenting primarily common cases over edge cases. Progressively revealing complexity.

Post-AI, I'm adding more detail and examples than I would previously. Not excessively, but I'm writing for agents as my primary audience at this point.

I pretty much have the assumption human eyes will never touch these docs in the future.

I weirdly find this exciting - humans skip sections and miss details, but now I know every doc improvement I make directly translates to better AI-generated Laravel code.

I've implemented countless designs over my career. I recently started compiling a list of tips that I can share with other devs.

Details often get missed between design and implementation. I want to minimize the difference.

@mathiasonea Now yes, was not deployed yesterday :)

Finally tried Laravel Cloud for a side project. A little late to the party, since at work we're running straight on AWS.

Got a fun debugging story right away: deployment green, app healthy, but the homepage returned a 502 from Cloudflare. Nothing in the app logs, nothing in Nightwatch. From Laravel's point of view, every request was a 200.

I finally found the answer in the nginx logs: upstream sent too big header (logged as Info, not as an Error).

Laravel Cloud default is SESSION_DRIVER=cookie. My landing page stuffed ~60 KB of demo data into the session → the entire payload ended up in the Set-Cookie header → nginx buffer overflow → response dropped. Fair: My mistake.

@laravel But any way to make Cloudflare/nginx issues like this more visible in the future?

Besides that: genuinely impressed. https://t.co/oOAsFs354x is now running on Laravel Cloud 🚀

According to @mattstauffer and @taylorotwell, @laravel isn’t just a PHP framework.

It’s a full-stack application development framework that has always brought multiple languages together.

@LaraconUS never stops going, neither does our Engineering team.

Here are some of the features @taylorotwell walked through yesterday:

◆ Your Laravel Cloud stack sleeps and wakes in under 500 ms (MySQL included), and managed queues scale to zero when your queue is empty.

◆ Deploy your Next.js/Nuxt frontend on Cloud, from the same repo as your Laravel app.

◆ Laravel LSP brings VS Code's autocomplete and navigation to any editor.

◆ Inertia DevTools shows you every request, header, and hydrated prop.

[Josh Cirre @joshcirre]

I’m loving this update.

Monorepo support is now incredibly easy. Plus, you have @nextjs and @nuxt_js support right here on Laravel Cloud.

It’s simple. And I love it.

[Josh Cirre @joshcirre]

It’s getting real.
