It is a pleasure to have Alex on. He actually taught me a good chunk of my PHP knowledge way back in the day when he ran under "PHP Academy". Thanks Alex :)

Dude I remember learning PHP from your tutorials under PHP academy channel back in early 2014. About 6 months later I got myself a first job as a PHP developer which kicked off my IT carreer. Forever grateful! Now here I am almost 7 years later learning new things and found you again. Awesome :)

[Redragon]

I can't believe i watched 2, 5 hours of coding in one sitting. Just amazing how thrilling and at the same time pleasant this course is done by Alex. Many thanks!

[kadershaikh]

Alex is such a good teacher. His explainations are so simple and easy to understand. Brad please want more of Laravel and Vue content from your channel....plzzz

[Stoney_Eagle]

Laravel is a joy to code with.
Once you understand the MVC part of it it's super easy and fast to do anything you can imagine.

[Knards]

Alex is a HUGE part of my early learning. Be hard to find anyone better!

If you're having an issue around @12:50 - @13:20 using "require('tailwindcss')" and then trying to run "npm run dev"

-- Tailwind CSS 2.0 requires Laravel Mix version 6 (which is currently in a beta state)
-- You can check which versions you have installed in the package.json file
-- If you've noticed that Tailwind CSS version is 2 or higher and Laravel Mix is 5 or lower, you can try the following:

0) You have already typed: require('tailwindcss') into the webpack.mix.js file
1) In the terminal type: npm remove laravel-mix
2) Terminal: npm install laravel-mix@^6.0.0-beta.14 --save-dev
3) Optional Terminal (probably isn't necessary, but wont hurt): php artisan config:cache
4) Terminal: npm install
5) Terminal: npm run dev

That should get you back on track

I was really looking forward to get an up to date Laravel course from Brad, but I must say this instructor is really really good and is explaining everything with precise detail. Respect and thumbs up!

[kachicelestine]

Thank you sir for the nice and concise series in laravel 8.

To avoid manual importation of classes, I use NameSpace Resolver extention(vscode).

Other extensions that make laravel easy in VSCode include :-

Laravel blade snippet
Laravel snippet
Laravel spacer

Damn... This was the first web dev course I have ever finished watching and follow through and that makes me feel accomplished :)

[edpogi]

Just completed this course now (3 days learning). Thank you very much Traversy and sir Alex for very well precise explanation. I really learned a lot here, just right to my new work. God bless you there bro

[marshallklickman]

As a primarily front end dev who hasn't worked with Laravel for at least a year (and not on a regular basis for at least two years), this video is *exactly* what I was looking for. So amazing.

I even created a "Laravel" list in my saved YouTube videos just for this. Excellent work, thank you so much.

[abhijithj]

I remember when I was starting to learn PHP, it was from Alex's videos on TheNewBoston. Glad to see him again. Its been like 4 years.

[cobb]

Outstanding! You covered the same amount of information that other tutorials take ~10 hours.

[jakke]

Thanks for another great tutorial.
It is very condensed and a lot of theory is given... I'm always amazed these 1-2h videos keep me busy for days but I learn A LOT through them.

[shaikhalamin]

Alex was my first instructor to learn laravel in 2015. I am glad to see him at here

[folkepalmqvist]

Wait, is this Alex from phpacademy? Because of you I now work with my dream job in IT. Big thanks for all your work!

[michaelou]

Thank you so much for this Alex.
Anyone who had this error: "Target class [App\View\Components\Post] does not exist", in the Blade Components part (02:06:49),
then make sure you deleted the "View\Components\Post", and finally run "php artisan view:clear".

[LongySchlongy]

Travery is really taking care of us developers hey. I learnt an older version of laravel from this channel and today I'm a well established full stack freelance web developer. Thank you Brad

[Idysman]

Ah Traversy media Thanks!!!
Alex thanks so much.
Currently am learning Laravel and this will really be a great edge for me.
I really appreciate the energy and synergy between you and Alex
Thanks once again.
