LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT RAD IS RAPID APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT Contrast to waterfall development Tied to Agile & other management/development practices Adjusting requirements as more knowledge gained In short: Develop applications… rapidly… then iterate
LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT LARAVEL’S RAD SOUL MEANS: Get the repetitive cruft out of the way so you can make awesome apps, fast. LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT
LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT MOVING QUICKLY FROM IDEA TO MVP: THREE APPROACHES LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT 1. Build the backend first with simple CRUD views (Create, Read, Update, Delete) 2. Build frontend views with no/stubbed data 3. Build individual features all through, one at a time
LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT JTBD-LIGHT WHEN BUILDING SIDE PROJECTS Identify minimum functionality required to do this job (like TDD), then build that out frontend-to-backend; launch, gather feedback, repeat
LEVERAGING LARAVEL @STAUFFERMATT *(ONE MORE REASON OUR IDEAS DON’T BECOME REALITY: Moving from a general idea of how a technology works to understanding how to concretely implement it right now can often eat up all the time on your side projects)
