Ok, my actual stance on that is, if your GitHub lawn is "green", sure, go for it. Otherwise look elsewhere.

The other night, my youngest walked down the hall behind the kitty, arms up, asking her for a goodnight hug.

One of the cutest things I've seen my kids do.

And then in some places, Pennant feature checks would be run and stop migrations from running since the features table didn't exist yet.

Specifically, if I was trying to update a migration for a brand data structure that hadn't been deployed yet, I would just edit the new migration instead of creating another migration to modify the table or columns.

This would require rolling back or wiping the DB first though.

Wait, but if features are stored in the DB, will this break migrations if someone clones the project for the first time? (checking a Pennant feature I mean)

I've had that happen a lot.

Outside-in is always nice.

Works the same with frontend: how do you want your users to actually use it? And you can use a dummy layer for data/content below the layer you're actually working on until you have it all wired up.

Wonder what they're budgeting that 300th character away for. πŸ€”

Tried Blueprint by Shift for the first time recently. Awesome package for quick scaffolding!

At the same time, I also got to learn not to list any models that already existβ€”or at least make sure they're in git first. πŸ˜…

Also first time trying Blueprint by Laravel Shift. Didn't realize how helpful it would be, especially since I was already in the habit of writing data structure I'm thinking about almost in the format of their Draft file format.

Gonna have to keep using that. πŸ™‚

It's nothing glamorous at the moment, just a personal freelance jobs DB basicallyβ€”jobs + status + location, orgs they're for, contacts, notes...

It has another supporting purpose that I have to figure out (if it turns out it's even possible). We'll see.

is it that the group itself is small, lack of obvious interest (like even any simple response)...?

Ok, deciced to send in a feature request for this. I'm getting more and more used to doing just keyboard nav. Less mouse ftw 😎

Sounds like an extension of the "what we design" vs. "what users want" problem. We probably are moving towards a single conversational interface after all.

`tab` and `shift+tab` working as expected on the sidebar is nice though
