theres old course by Brad on Eduonix, but is about Laravel 6 if I recall good. However I honestly hope, to see up to date course on Laravel by Brad on Udemy, and maybe advanced edition on the OOP PHP MVC Course as well, please :)

Agreed!

[@jareerzeenam8200]

Omg, Thank you so much Brad. Your Previous Laravel video (lsapp) was my first ever laravel course in my life and it changed a lot in my life. Now i'm working as a Laravel Backend developer in a reputed company. Thank you so much again. You have been a role model in my life ❤️

[@amehjosephonyeke9115]

what is his full name please, he did not even mention it at the beginning of the tutorial

[@maazktk2755]

Waiting so long for your own laravel content. Thank you so much 😍

[@code_magpie]

You and Mosh are the greatest code Instructors on KZbin who make very difficult and blurry things very simple and crystal clear. Love the way you teach. You aren't wasting a single minute in unrelated things. Whenever you bring something, you always come up with something solid.

[@stefans1066]

Awesome content and I think it is very likeable that you don't try to cover up or cut out any mistakes / typos etc. because that keeps it so authentic. Thanks for the effort man, much appreciated 👍

[@michealgabriel1437]

Oh my, I really love the way you taught this... simple, straight forward, organized and calm. Amazing Thanks Brad !

[@armindamarin3328]

Thank you very much, Brad, for this video and for others such as javascript, react and react-native. Those have been the ones I've watched and I really like your teaching style and the pacing of the videos. Thanks to you I might actually pass my internship yet :D

[@santysasa12]

Great teacher! You go straight to the point, you explain in a easy way to understand, you take your time to explain the details of what you are doing. Keep up the good work! Edit: I found the video, and thought this was your channel. I don't know if you have a channel of your own already, explaining code, laravel or other stuff, but you really should.

[@frankjones7119]

Give this guy a medal! Thanks a lot Brad. Your videos are incredibly helpful. I just wish I could ask you some questions as I watch. Thankfully, you explain things well enough for me to just pause the vid, go research and come back with the knowledge I need. Keep up the good work man!

[@gamedevsa]

I cannot believe that you record these tutorial in real time and pretty much perfect. Anyone that has tried this knows how impressive that is. Thanks.

[@shivansh901]

Mr Traversy is one of the best teacher, explaining each and every line of code makes learning so much easier. Thanks for such quality content.

[@s-sugoi835]

Hands down, the only tutorial that worked out for me. It was laughing so hard towards the end but I learned a lot from this. More power to you Brad!

[@Kader-su8jr]

This is exactly what i wanted😮 and boom I got a Traversy Media video🔥

I do agree with others, Laravel tutorials are really needed. Thank you very much Brad.... You are helping us in a way that is not possible to say it by words. You are a HERO in our hearts BRAD. I LOVE YOUR WORK

[@drjonbear7517]

I just want to put it out there that today I was tasked with creating a REST API in Laravel. Never done it before. Exquisite timing as usual!

[@nivus97]

Eres realmente muy bueno, te felicito, preciso y puntual, sin duda alguna debería haber mas tutoriales como los tuyos. Además lo explicas de una manera muy buena para poder despegar un proyecto base, saludos desde México.

[@Vasmir5]

If possible please make a react front end for Laravel. This is a nice combination that is not seen often. Naturally, thank you for for all the videos you provide. They are immense help.

[@majacom2]

Agreed! Front-end react + redux (with TypeScript offcourse) and back-end: Laravel and whatever db. By the way thx a lot Brad! Your content is life changer for me.

[@chzmo]

This would be cool

Seriously the quality of your content is beyond insane. I have not gotten this level of education during my whole time on the university. How the possibility of learning something new has improved within the last 15 years... It always blows my mind.

[@Anothy]

Awesome tutorial, dude! I went from having never touched Laravel to being confident enough to make an API with authentication.

[@ush6939]

bro this is so insane , i started watching ur 2019 or 2018 laravel series , im on part 9 right now i was willing to watch some other tutoriels after i was finished with yours and now boom u put a laravel video out of nowhere , thank you so much for your time

[@mirodil.kamilov]

After learning most of the basics of Laravel, I have recently started thinking about APIs (which is not so much content indeed). So, it was right to time with the right context for me. Thank you, Brad!

[@marcolancellotti8114]

Just a little tip! In the video Brad uses the resource to handle CRUD apis in both Controller generation and Routing but there is actually a better method: using the apiResource instead of resource will not generate the routes and methods for the view parts which in API case are pretty uselless :)

[@ilhamakhyar4849]

Compared to other tutorials, I think this is the only tutorial that is simple and very clear. Thank you so much brad

[@nikulasoskarsson5472]

Really happy seeing this one! Do you have any plans to do more Laravel / PHP soon Brad? :)

[@bra5081]

I like this kind of tutorial, simple, efficient, straight to the point and practical.

[@rimialfarwan2397]

Thank you so much Brad, you are always amazing!. just a side note, we can use Route::apiResource instead of Route::resource in the route. also if you type hint the parameters in the update/delete methods with the model class, Eloquent will automatically fetch the object for you ;)

[@MG-wx8yx]

He is not using resource class I think that's why he didn't use Route::apiResource(), I guess that's the reason. I always use resource class and then use apiResource in all my route resources in api.php file.

[@sayeedmahmudsaad7535]

I was searching to set the unique token authentication for 6 months now I found Brads video. That was really helpful. I request you to make a quick crash course on Laravel 8. I saw your previous series but it's not updated. So, Hopefully We'll get the latest laravel tutorial series from you. Thanks for everything you give us.

Great tutorial. I have always been scared of making API since I learned laravel. I was going to learn nodejs, and even though I did, I always thought laravel was way easier. Please, any chance you could do a video with laravel and vuejs? I want to see how the routing will work (in terms of accessing pages and actually sending the data from a vuejs form). Thanks again!

Hey Calvin, me again! Was just rewatching some of your videos, man you have a lot of awesome content. I mean, I can tell you know your stuff and you want to show something more advanced that the general Laravel API beginners stuff, so people can see how a more advanced implementation works. Definitely appreciate that... I have a specific comment here, because i was trying your "public static $wrap = 'articles';", but it didn't work in the ArticleResources file. I looked for an answer and saw some implementations put it into ArticleCollection... so i moved it there and it worked for me.
