Laracon US 2025 - Denver - Day 1 Live Stream

Laracon US is live!

www.youtube.com/live/_eMBog...

just installed Affinity Photo and it's unbelievable how simple and straightforward this process was compared to Photoshop or any other Adobe software 😅
And it's is so much cleaner and faster it's incredible

thank you for making this great app!

would you look at that API client!

Looks like yaak.app/ is a great alternative to tools like Postman!

Local directory sync & git support, environments, variables, functions, request chaining, encryption, ...

And it's free & open source! 🎉

if you want to waste your time doing something other than doomscrolling, try this:
neal.fun/stimulation...

the jump ahead feature has to be one of my favorite youtube features

Dear Windows,

The box is literally called "Shut Down Windows".

Why is the "Shut down" option not here?

And why is it sometimes missing and sometimes not?

Please just make the box do what it says, 100% of the time.

Thank you,
Every Windows user, probably

hey look what just arrived! That’s so cool PHPStan 🎉

NO GITHUB WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS

this was by far the best and fastest way to navigate around 😭

wow my city just got hit with a power outage also taking down the mobile network

no power, no internet, no mobile services

now using a supermarkets free wifi to inform clients why I didn’t make it to the meetings 😬

lol what

Figma just added the glass effect and it's AWESOME 🔥

TIL you can create spaces on GitHub Copilot web:

- Create a space on github.com/copilot/spaces
- You can add repositories as context
- Custom instructions

You now have an internal AI assistant for internal packages, with company guidelines, etc..

And they can be shared org-wide!

that's wild:

you can assign Copilot to an issue on GitHub, and it will automatically create a PR to solve it.

When it's done, you can review it and leave comments.
Copilot then tries to fix them with new commits to the PR.

Once you're happy, merge it.

Worked great so far! 🔥

What a great event - so many interesting talks, people, and companies ✨

we talk about cyber security and how to make things as secure as possible, and then there are people in trains leaving their *unlocked* iPad and phone unattended 🤦‍♂️

Very interesting to see how AI Coding Agents sometimes recover and fix errors the agent itself created, without human intervention.

MCP servers and command line access are a game-changer for AI tools. They have superpowers now! 😄

Awesome event so far!
Interesting talks, cool people and companies everywhere, and delicious food 😄

#WeAreDevs

90% of code will be written by agents, to give developers time back to do the things they really like.
But human developers will always be needed, we as developers have skills agents don‘t.

„It‘s agents for the sake of happiness“

- Thomas Dohmke, GitHub CEO

Let‘s go! #WeAreDevs

Let‘s go! #WeAreDevs

on my way to #WeAreDevs in Berlin 🚅

very useful, thanks! I'll take a look at all those options 👍

there's a little "you made it to the end" animation at the end of a big PR on GitHub!
I've never noticed that before 😄

I'm diving into web components land with StencilJS, wish me luck

I know AI tools are the future, but turning off all AI tools in my editor and just writing some Laravel code is a great feeling ✨

i need raycast for my iPad
