Ensuring application stability and দ্রুত problem resolution hinges on effective error logging. Silent catch blocks, while seemingly benign, can mask critical failures, making them invisible to monitoring systems. This post outlines a strategy for replacing these silent catch blocks with proper logging mechanisms, enhancing overall application observability.
In software development, repetitive tasks can consume valuable time and introduce inconsistencies. Automating these tasks not only boosts efficiency but also enhances code quality and maintainability. This post explores how custom skills can be leveraged to streamline project workflows, focusing on practical examples and benefits.

Recently, we faced a situation where we needed to extend our Tenant model to directly handle subscription checks, which required overriding some core Cashier methods.
Our application uses a multi-tenant architecture. Each tenant needs to manage
Implementing full-text search can significantly enhance the user experience of your portfolio or blog. This post details how to add PostgreSQL-powered full-text search to a Laravel application, focusing on accent-insensitive prefix searching across multiple fields.
Simple LIKE queries in SQL often fall short when dealing with complex search
When integrating with GitHub, users sometimes encounter issues when updating the granted permissions (scopes). A recent update addresses a scenario where these updates would silently fail, leaving users confused.
When a user attempted to update their GitHub scope (e.g., from public-only access to all repositories) via the integrations page, a failure in the Socialite OAuth
Recent development activity focused on code style consistency and updates to the database schema.
Applied automated formatting fixes using php-cs-fixer. This ensures consistent code style across the project, improving readability and maintainability. The tool automatically adjusts spacing, indentation, and other stylistic elements according to predefined rules.
After consolidating billing to a tenant-based system (Phase 3), we encountered an issue with the Cashier package. The default customer model was still set to User, causing errors when Stripe webhook events triggered.
The stripe_id column, expected by Cashier, was not found because it was looking in the User model instead of the Tenant model.
New community skills have been added to enhance Laravel development workflows, covering areas from API design to testing and debugging. These skills aim to provide practical guidance and best practices for building robust and maintainable applications.
