Thank you, Povilas! In general, I did not find much information about the creation of fake data with examples on the Internet. And here is a very useful one.

Hello Povilas, thanks for the great video. My suggestion would be to be a bit smaller:

User::factory()
->count(10)
->has(Project::factory()
->count(10)

)
->create();
The has() and for() functionality in factories is very nice if you already build the relationship in the model itself. I would love to see an update of this with it :)

Hi,
Can I use inertia with multiple views? one for admin and other for users?
tnx

[MarcoMasi-masiorama]

Thanks for the content. What if I want to be able to seed directly a Task or a Project, with dedicated clsses? How do I supply the project_id or user_id in this case?

[amirulidzham]

Awesome. Just about to ask the same question

One thing I miss with the image seeder is an offline way to do this or something similar (randomly generated gradient orsmth). I've had moments where the service was unreachable, insecure (old ssl cert), or just plain unusable for a seeding a big seed (it doesn't re-use a local cache either). Could be better (:

Hi, thanks for the awesome daily videos. What would be a good approach in developing a multi-module application. For example, a HR module, Accounting module, Billing module, etc. such that each module can be separately plugged into another project with minimal configuration? Any suggestions would help. Thanks

How to seed categories table that has a patent_category_id column?

[popetgirl]

really like image generation with faker and saving on path.

[mrAzrarn]

And how to properly delete these fake images on migrate:refresh?

[tinmancode]

Hi Povilas, great video, I have tried something like that a few months ago, it works fine but performance is not ideal as I am always reseeding every few days,
I got it to be perromant by creatind the first level models first, then taking the first level model keys to generate the second level models and so on.
Maybe someone has a better solution but this is what worked for me

please can you talk about soowle php and and reactPhp any thing can help

[abdourahmanediop]

Hello, Thanks for the interesting videos you share for free. However, when I run this line:
"$this->faker->image('app/public/avatars',

PhpUnit tells me that I don't have write permission for the path: "app/public/avatars".

Can someone help me with this bug?

Note: I have already created the public storage link

[alexaverkiyev]

How about refactoring that to single responsibility?
