Eloquent Performance Patterns Course Needs an Update for Laravel 12/13

Hi everyone, I just finished watching the Eloquent Performance Patterns course and I really enjoyed Jonathan Reinink’s teaching style and the content. However, I noticed that the course is quite old now (last updated in early 2023). Laravel has changed a lot since then — especially with:

Laravel 12 & 13 improvements New Eloquent features and query optimizations Changes in database handling and performance tools Newer packages and best practices (e.g. newer versions of Scout, Octane, etc.)

Many of the examples still work, but it would be amazing if this course could get a proper refresh with the latest Laravel version, updated code examples, and new performance techniques that are relevant in 2026. This course is one of the most valuable ones on Laracasts for real-world applications. Updating it would help a lot of developers who want to write faster and more efficient Laravel apps with modern best practices. What do you think? Anyone else feeling the same?
