While I can't directly influence Laracasts' merchandise decisions, I can suggest how you might create a custom keyboard shortcut mat for PhpStorm on your own. Here's a step-by-step guide:
-
Identify Key Shortcuts: First, compile a list of the most useful PhpStorm shortcuts. You can find these in the PhpStorm documentation or customize them according to your workflow.
-
Design the Layout: Use a graphic design tool like Adobe Illustrator, Canva, or even a simple tool like Microsoft PowerPoint to design the layout of your mat. Make sure to categorize shortcuts logically (e.g., navigation, refactoring, debugging).
-
Choose a Printing Service: There are many online services that allow you to print custom designs on mouse pads or desk mats. Some popular ones include:
- Vistaprint
- Printful
- Redbubble
-
Upload Your Design: Once your design is ready, upload it to the chosen service. Make sure to select the appropriate size and material for your mat.
-
Order and Enjoy: Place your order and wait for your custom keyboard shortcut mat to arrive!
Here's a simple example of how you might organize some PhpStorm shortcuts in your design:
+----------------------+----------------------+
| Navigation | Refactoring |
+----------------------+----------------------+
| Ctrl + N | Shift + F6 |
| (Go to Class) | (Rename) |
+----------------------+----------------------+
| Ctrl + Shift + N | Ctrl + Alt + M |
| (Go to File) | (Extract Method) |
+----------------------+----------------------+
| Ctrl + E | Ctrl + Alt + V |
| (Recent Files) | (Extract Variable) |
+----------------------+----------------------+
This is just a starting point, and you can customize it further based on your needs.
