The Laravel Podcast | How We Built Nightwatch, with Jess Archer In this episode of the Laravel Podcast, host Matt Stauffer sits down with Jess Archer, Engineering Team Lead at Laravel, to explore her journey to the team and her work on key projects—most notably...

For the Laravel Podcast, @jessarcher.bsky.social gave @mattstauffer.com early access and the insights were instant:

"Within minutes of setting up Nightwatch, I learned things about our user base, codebase, and application that I never would have on my own."

Tomorrow I'm bringing the brilliant @jessarcher.bsky.social onto the Laravel Podcast to talk a few things, but at the forefront, we'll talk about Nightwatch, Laravel's new application monitoring product.

Got any questions for Jess? Not just about the product, but about building it?

I started about 2 weeks ago and am finding it very addictive

Love this so much!

We use Laravel's query builder for select statements (with a lot of selectRaw calls). We don't write to the DB in our app code, but in tests/seeders we use bulk insert methods on the underlying SDK.

Congrats Hartin Family!

I have this as my notification sound when my partner messages me 😁

The supporting 2x6 plate made me giggle

Nice! Explains why some folks I know are contributors aren't detected (yet).

How does it map GitHub users to Bsky users?

I just learned about Olauncher from DHH and found the concept and execution brilliant!

The only thing preventing me from switching is I have quite a few apps in Private Space that I can't access. I'm guessing it would be tough to implement?

Flawless!

The cracks in my superpower are starting to show 😬

I think the further they are from my height, the less accurate I get.

Also I haven't posted the couple I got wrong 😜

I think I might be!

Gotcha! 😁

I think I've discovered my superpower!

Nailed it! Unlike @dyrynda.au I chose not to play on hard mode.

Too frustratingly close to handle

I could change my last name to "motorcycles" and then I'd be set! I definitely do a lot more motorcycling than archery so it kinda makes sense to do it...

I'm hanging out for a .her or .er tld to come out.

Yes! 🤘

Pretty sure I said that exact phrase when referring to the database seeder behind the Nightwatch demo 😄

I *think* I managed to create a @larabelles.com starter pack! Just a few people to get started, please share for reach and let me know who to add!
