Developer happiness, from download to deploy

Slide 11

Slide 11 text

We spend so much time crafting amazing applications But often fail to find time to improve our workflow

Full Stack is an abused term

Slide 17

What is a Full Stack developer?2 1. Server, Network, and Hosting Environment 2. Data Modeling 3. Business Logic 4. API layer / Action Layer / MVC 5. User Interface 6. User Experience 7. Understanding what the customer and the business need 2 http://www.laurencegellert.com/2012/08/what-is-a-full-stack-developer/

Slide 18 text

There's so much to learn

Slide 19

Slide 19 text

Does anyone recognize themselves in this?

Slide 20

Slide 20 text

Not everyone has time to learn All The Things™

Slide 21

Slide 21 text

I can't learn everything

Slide 22

Slide 22 text

What if the tools we use didn't require us to learn everything?

Slide 23

Slide 23 text

Laravel offers an ecosystem which enables developers to focus on what's important

Slide 24

Slide 24 text

The Framework

Slide 25

Slide 25 text

It brings code back to the essence // Zend $route = Literal::factory([ 'route' => '/foo', 'defaults' => [ 'controller' => 'foo', 'action' => 'index', ], ]); $router->addRoute('foo', $route); // Laravel Route::get('foo', 'FooController@index');

Slide 26

Slide 26 text

It hides complexity // Doctrine $criteria = new \Doctrine\Common\Collections\Criteria(); $criteria->where($criteria->expr()->gt('votes', 100)) ->andWhere($criteria->expr()->eq('active', 1)); $posts = $em->getRepository('Post')->matching($criteria); // Eloquent $posts = Post::where('votes', '>', 100) ->where('active', 1) ->get(); // Eloquent (using query scopes) $posts = Post::popular()->active()->get();

Slide 27

Slide 27 text

It's clean and readable // Symfony $client = static::createClient(); $client->request('GET', '/post/hello-world'); $this->assertContains( 'Hello World', $client->getResponse()->getContent() ); // Laravel (Thanks Jeffrey!) $this->visit('/post/hello-world') ->see('Hello World');

Slide 28

Slide 28 text

It simplifies complex topics // Cron jobs in Laravel $schedule->command('cache:clear') ->hourly() ->sendOutputTo($logFile) ->emailOutputTo('[email protected]');

Slide 29

Slide 29 text

Laravel has become an essential tool in the workflow of many developers

Slide 30

Slide 30 text

You can even use the components separately github.com/mattstauffer/IlluminateNonLaravel

Slide 31

Slide 31 text

Laravel enables Rapid Application Development (RAD)

Slide 32

Slide 32 text

It allows ideas to come to life in a small amount of time

Slide 33

Slide 33 text

A lot of people think that RAD is a problem

Slide 34

Slide 34 text

But it really just depends on the situation

Slide 35

Slide 35 text

Laravel only limits you to do something when you choose to see it like that

Slide 36

Slide 36 text

Lumen

Slide 37

Slide 37 text

Lumen 4 Micro-framework for Micro-services 4 Sacrifices configurability for speed 4 Easy upgrade to a full Laravel application

Slide 38

Slide 38 text

The Extensions

Slide 39

Slide 39 text

Socialite

Slide 40

Slide 40 text

Social authentication has never been easier public function redirectToProvider() { return Socialite::driver('github')->redirect(); } public function handleProviderCallback() { $user = Socialite::driver('github')->user(); // register user }

Slide 41

Slide 41 text

Need more providers? Flickr, DigitalOcean, Meetup, Paypal, Slack, Trello, Mailchimp, Youtube, Uber, Instagram, Foursquare, Dropbox, Dribbble, Jira, Disqus, SoundCloud, Spotify, Reddit, ... ...and many more socialiteproviders.github.io

Slide 42

Cashier

Slide 43

Slide 43 text

Billing without the hassle // Create a subscription $user->subscription('monthly')->create($creditCardToken); // Change a user's plan $user->subscription('premium')->swap(); // Cancel a subscription $user->subscription()->cancel();

Slide 44

Slide 44 text

Envoy

A simple deployment solution @servers(['web' => '192.168.1.1']) @task('deploy', ['on' => 'web']) cd site git pull origin {{ $branch }} php artisan migrate @endtask
