Not only did this fit a specific use case I was trying to find a workaround for, but it was well presented and easy to follow. You also made an effort to cover the premise on why it should be carried out with the given methods. 10/10!

I tried the same thing but without the ->get on the controller it isn’t mapping the data. Whenever I do the above with the ->get it is returning an empty array when I return the resource collection?

Great videos, what editor are you using?

Have a question.
On my Category Model I have this parent_id that is being used by `parent(): belongsTo` 'relationship function' that is pointing to the table itself (id). How should I write this self referencing relationship inside the eloquent resource?

4 months ago I watched your video and found it to be very helpful, now I am again watching this because I am working on a project where we had so many resources and all these resources are highly nested...in one API resource at least 4-5 other resources are called and they are also nested with more resources.
So we came into a performance issue problem, APIs are taking a long time to return the response, I was doing some code optimization.
No eager loading is done on these resources. So can you tell me, whether to optimize the response of only one API, I need to eager load all the relationships on the nested resources? Or there is any other solution.

Kindly guide me.

please make a tutorial where we had to do a high level of manipulations in most of the DB keys before sending them to API, using resources, not just dumping all the db columns.
