There's no shortage of good resources for learning laravel. So instead of the usual introductory tutorial were just gonna learn Laravel by building a project from scratch and that's gonna be a User Management System.

I don't know if my definition of a User Management System is correct but here's my idea of what's it's capable of doing:

  • Register Roles
  • Register Users
  • Update Users

Random list of tools I use

Random list of tools I use

There are many tools one can use to improve productivity, however, its sometimes the simplest of changes/configuration to your existing tools that makes the most impact.

As an example: Bash Scripts. If you're writing more than 15 characters in bash multiple times a day with random IP's and tags to remember, write a simple shorthand function. Examples:

  • Instead of typing scp -P 5555 /some/path/to/file.php username@some.random.ip.address:/var/www/project/current/some/path/to/file.php, I have a little script: scp{projectname} /some/path/to/file.php. It already knows our server details, and the path relative to the project (both locally for autocompletion, and on the server). It also sends out a HipChat notification that the certain file has been overwritten, so I don't have to worry about keeping the team in the loop.

}
// This pretty much got the last active parameter for a specific model.
// However, sometimes we wanted to see into the future/past, which wasn't entirely possible.
// Especially if you wanted to eagerload it.
