Laravel Model Caching
You’ve probably cached some model data in the controller before, but I am going to show you a Laravel model caching technique that’s a little more granular using Active Record models.

The DRY principle misunderstood
I know what you are thinking: "Again a boring article on DRY? Don't we have enough already?".
You might be right. However I see too many developers (junior or senior) applying DRY like they are doing some witch hunting. Totally randomly or everywhere they can.

Factory as a Service
Dependency Injection Containers are a great invention - when used the right way, they allow us to keep our factories and assembly logic of services outside the core business logic of our application.

Debugging PHP with Xdebug: a 2018 handbook
Using debuggers in PHP is probably no unfamiliar territory for us developers, but do you know how to set-up Xdebug for your CLI script? Or perhaps you are experimenting with containers and resorted back to using the good old
Using debuggers in PHP is probably no unfamiliar territory for us developers, but do you know how to set-up Xdebug for your CLI script? Or perhaps you are experimenting with containers and resorted back to using the good old
dd() or var_dump() because the extra twist in the Docker network made your old Xdebug configuration ineffective? No worries: We’ve hooked you up with a small handbook you can use in the most common PHP debugging situations this year.Data-driven testing with PHPUnit
Testing your code is an essential part of the development process, but sometimes it could also be expensive when you try to emulate many uses cases based on a set of different input data.

Being a software developer, I am sure you have very clear idea about frontend and backend development. In the simple words, frontend is also called the client side which is seen by the user in the form of UI/UX.

Simple TDD in Laravel with 11 steps
Most web developers cringe when they hear of TDD (test driven development). Well, I did when I was asked to program with TDD first.
When you are starting off, it feels overwhelming. If you resist it, it will make it harder for you to learn it. So what should you do? Embrace it. Well, it has reason why it is there. There will always be debates on technology, whether the programming language or the process you will use to develop software.

Unpacking binary data in PHP
Working with binary files in PHP is rarely a requirement. However when needed the PHP ‘pack’ and ‘unpack’ functions can help you tremendously. To set the stage we will start with a programming problem, this will keep the discussion anchored to a relevant context. The problem is this : We want to write a function that takes a image file as an argument and tells us whether the file is a GIF image; irrelevant with whatever the extension the file may have. We are not to use any GD library functions.

Mapping Form Request to Eloquent
Laravel comes with API Resources to map an Eloquent object into a response. But what about the request? After struggling with this for a long time, I’m finally happy to introduce Bag!

Insufficient Transport Layer Security (HTTPS, TLS and SSL)
Communication between parties over the internet is fraught with risk. When you are sending payment instructions to a store using their online facility, the very last thing you ever want to occur is for an attacker to be capable of intercepting, reading, manipulating or replaying the HTTP request to the online application. You can imagine the consequences of an attacker being able to read your session cookie, or to manipulate the payee, product or billing address, or to simply to inject new HTML or Javascript into the markup sent in response to a user request to the store.
