@devgummibeer @freekmurze Thanks for the feedback @devgummibeer, I think you make a really valid point! While I don't completely agree, I'm going to update the article to reflect this perspective, as it's a completely valid argument. 🙏👍

We're slowly closing in on releasing our 500th open source package! 📦

Over the past decade, we've established a set of guiding principles for what makes a great package.

1. Easy and fun to use
Put effort into making our packages as user-friendly as possible. Ultimately, a package should be fun to use.

2. Excellent documentation
Invest time in creating excellent documentation. Makes it easy to discover what a package does and what all the features are.

3. Well-tested
Provides yourself and others with proof that the package code behaves correctly and works under all conditions.

4. Readable
Structure and write our code in such a way that others can easily understand what is going on. Choose names of variables, functions and classes with care.

5. Flexible
You can’t imagine every scenario your code will be used in, so make packages as customizable and extensible as possible. Structured code in small functions and classes that can be overwritten or extended.

6. Small scope
Keep the scope small. Prefer a small package with one very polished feature over a large package that tries to cover all possible edge cases and variations of a problem.

7. Up to date
Try to keep your package up to date in the long run. When maintaining a Laravel package, tag a new version for each major framework update.

👀 Looking for that elusive bug is difficult, even with a great tool like Ray.

💡 But when you finally find the bug, you'd better celebrate!

🎉 You can call `ray()->confetti()` to get the party started. Check our blog post in the comments to see it in effect.
