What You Need to Know Before Learning Laravel | Learn Laravel The Right Way

I have finished few projects in Laravel and Laravel/Livewire. I have transitioned from Codeigniter half year ago and learned Laravel along the transition. I cant wait for this course to fulfill things that I have been skipped. Your previous course 'Learn PHP the right way' have helped me and many others a lot. Thanks!

Thank you so much for these great contents. Learning about 'Laravel internals,' 'most used design patterns in Laravel,' and the best architecture patterns to build a standard project (like using the service layer, repository layer, or DDD) has been incredibly helpful. Again, thank you so much, Gio, for all of your efforts and assistance

Good to see you back, you made me get into PHP thanks to your previous courses :) It would be nice to know how to properly use some of techniques that one can stumble onto reading code and that are described in documentations. I believe that topics such as events, listeners, thier use cases, proper ways of thinking in MVC would be ideal to mention while covering topics about Laravel. Just to meet these tools and problem they solve on some live examples :)

You're very right in the pre-requisites master Gio, I'm a victim of diving first in the laravel framework, I learned in the docs and some other resources thought not completely all because some of the terms or instructions in the docs is hard for me to understand. So, I realized that I'm lacking of a solid foundation in PHP. It's a relieved that I found where to learn more 🎉

I think I’ll do php the right way partly for refresh on OOP and MVC and start doing this laravel also. What I’m excited about learning is handling cache. I have a couple of websites running on php and the cache is always a troublemaker

[@ProgramWithGio]

Yup, caching is important but can be tricky I agree

[@xristosgr567]

After I watched learn PHP the right way I waited eagerly for your course for Laravel although I already work with Laravel for some time now! It would be nice if you include some architectural or build patterns like repository, services, actions or dig into the ecosystem like livewire, inertia reverb although each of these might be a tutorial by their own 😅.

[@ProgramWithGio]

Thanks for the suggestions. Livewire I feel like is its own thing, can make an entire course on it. I personally dont use it so cant teach something I dont know myself well. Reverb is still new and havent used it much yet but its an interesting feature.

I'm planning to pursue the Full Stack Web Development path again. I have basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python Flask. Should I learn a front-end framework first before proceeding to PHP and Laravel?

[@ProgramWithGio]

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to learn Laravel & PHP and use that as your back-end then I would focus on that, if you plan on using Python as your back-end then go with the front-end framework

[@Probablyaliq4]

I love to watch some topics like TDD , DDD , repository design pattern with laravel they are well demand topics and I like see your explanation for this topics

[@ProgramWithGio]

Great to hear! I'll try making episodes on those topics in future

[@user-MT101]

Nice video and clever explanation, can I ask you what application you have used for the animations?

[@ProgramWithGio]

I use adobe premiere pro for editing & envato elements (for some ready animations)

[@keremardicli4013]

i'm really looking forward to authorization, i can't really tell how many times i've spent building solid authorization with guis to assign roles and groups, it was always a painful for me since most oldschool frameworks i've worked with don't really cover this topic well or enough for me.

Can you make a course about: how to create e-commerce site (online shop)? With authentication, authorization, role permission, localization, adding products using admin panel, adding products to wishlist, product search on the site. It would be very good to get exactly this kind of skills..It would also be interesting to know how to integrate vue into blade to display a dynamic button interface on the site. For example, we have a code on vue, when we get to the dashboard section instead of registering, the button would change to the username...

Hi Mr. Gio, a correction on minute 3:12, you mention that SQLite is a no-relational DB, LOL 🤣. As its name said, the fact is a relational and its follow the SQL standard and more, you can use it with PDO.

[@mehdi-vl5nn]

@@ProgramWithGio well let's agree to disagree =) It's a long story, but it's more like MVP as architecture rather than MVC. There are a bunch of videos by Uncle Bob about Clean Architecture where he touches on this so-called "MVC as architecture". Check them out if you're interested, but at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter much. Oh! There's also a course on design patterns on Pluralsight that covers MVP. The instructor talks about those MVC frameworks too. It's really nice and worth watching.

[@ProgramWithGio]

@@mehdi-vl5nn yea I agree it's not a traditional MVC, that's why I said it "follows" MVC pattern and implements it in its own way. In some traditional MVC implementations models directly update views when the state changes. You also would put domain logic in traditional models but in Laravel models you typically don't and introduce another layer like services or actions or repositories where you put that logic. So it depends how you look at it to be honest.
