Alright, I’m going do it 🚀 Stay tuned for Technically Lit: become fluent in web dev without learning to code.

I’m having so much fun putting together a workshop for a client that I think I’m going to have to make into a full course 😄

Just deployed a #Laravel starter kit in less than 2 minutes with Laravel Cloud 🤯 I'm just so stoked for what everyone is going to build with this.

Design office hours is live now! Today’s focus: breaking out of "checklist mentality" 🤝 Join the stream! www.youtube.com/live/66YZYxb... #product #productdesign

We're back at 11a central tomorrow with another design office hours 🥳 I've seen a lot of teams struggle lately with a "checklist mentality", so we're going to talk about what it is and how to break free. See you then! youtube.com/live/66YZYxb... #product #productdesign

Design office hours is live now! Today’s focus: getting aligned across product disciplines 🤝 Join the stream! youtube.com/live/eoHoYQ5... #product #productdesign

We're back at 11a central tomorrow with another design office hours 🥳 We'll start by answering a community question about getting aligned across product disciplines before opening it up to Q&A. See you then! youtube.com/live/eoHoYQ5...

We’ve been visiting some clients this week and it’s so fun watching them use software that we built together 😄

Design office hours is happening right now! We'll be answering design questions and giving feedback on WIP, so come join the fun! youtube.com/live/yfkf9kn...

Session 1 of design office hours starts in just one hour at 11a central today! Bring some work in progress and your design questions for live feedback from me! youtube.com/live/yfkf9kn...

That moment when you edit a nested component in Figma and it cascades correctly through all of your screens 🤌

Feel like I’ve seen so many examples recently of industries that would really benefit from a shared schema.org style data model. For example, solar inverters using the same schema for logging events across brands.

Do y'all use service blueprints too? I find myself reaching for them in almost every project now.

Digging into some deep product work this week. Shipping code feels great, but there’s something magical about bringing clarity to chaos; aligning a team, and focusing on customer problems.

Hey #laravel friends, ever wanted some quick, high-quality product design feedback and guidance? 

I'm starting up a new live series in 2025 just for you–tune in this Friday at 11a central for design office hours.

Bring all the work you'd like to level up!

There’s nothing quite like watching someone try to open a coconut 🥥

This template really helped us in 2024: Hi <client>, we previously agreed to <initial scope>. You are now requesting this <change to scope>. We estimate it’ll take this <level of effort>. We can make these changes at our previously agreed upon rate of $XXX. Anything blocking us from starting?

Been learning Go over the holidays. Still too fresh to have strong feelings about it, but feels great to be learning something new 💪

Feels like the instrument font families are going to be big in 2025 👀

Discover the story of Aaron Francis 🎙️ Learn about his journey with Laravel Solo, teaching, and creating screencasts. An inspiration for all developers!

Got to celebrate the wins in entrepreneurship–a couple of our long-simmering initiatives are picking up steam and it's just so freaking exciting 😄

I've been adding these micro user flows next to my mockups, and they've really been helping with handoffs and when I revisit the design later. Really nice little process upgrade 🤌

Two product development "truths" I keep running into: 1. Software is never finished. 2. The reward for good work is more work.

I catch so many edge cases in my designs the second I try to record and share them 😆

#Laravel developers, I'm cooking up some new content for 2025 – what do you want to learn about #product #design?

I’ve never really been a podcast person, but I’m trying to get into it. What are your favorite #laravel podcasts?

Manifesting some personal goals for 2025: I'm going to get back into content production. Videos, articles, streams, courses, workshops–I'm feeling very drawn to creating again in a way I haven't felt in a looong time

What’s up with these LinkedIn requests? Are they scams or legit? 😅
