Excited to have this series.

Alternative to Valet/Vagrant etc. check out laragon.org for Windows, it's awesome and also allows pretty urls etc.
Yes you are right i m using laragon and loved it
I'm using Laragon too. Best PHP local server so far!
Hi Jeff, I love your series, thanks
Just discovered that series =D. Loved it <3
I had to run valet park (to add the birdboard Dir to valet's paths) before I could run birdboard.test in the browser
https://github.com/keizah7/birdboard Completed series with Laravel 7 if somebody gets stuck
I see there is no vendor directory...but laravel asks about it.
You can generate it, go to your project's root folder and run composer install inside your terminal, that should install the vendors for you (if you need to install composer have a look here buddy : https://getcomposer.org/).
Also if you need help, I guess there are courses here to help you use composer.
Enjoy :)
Upgraded repository to laravel 8
If you use Docker, check out Lando (lando.dev) it is amazingly fast to setup a dev environment
Finally, I will learn TDD.
when i type in $code valet, I get code not found error. What needs to be installed to support code ?
Code is the name of the directory on Jeffrey's computer where he keeps his coding applications. Code can be a valid command in your terminal when you want to launch vs code (IDE) - https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/command-line . Your only command in the terminal should be valet. Hope that helps.
It was a spectacular introduction.
Amazing series, elite introduction!
if i am using laravel 8 will this series still be pertinent?
you can always build with 6 and then upgrade to 8 - some way of learning .
install with composer laravel 6 https://laravel.com/docs/6.x
I've only made it up to lesson 6 so far, but yes. Everything is still pertinent so far. They changed the way that factories are used in laravel 8, but the new syntax is easier so it's no problem adapting the code as you go.
At this stage of the game, let's go class of TDD!
Would you please release an updated version of this course? or do you have any Unit test course for Laravel 9+?
