Laravel Livewire vs Blade, decided one feature at a time
Laravel Livewire vs plain Blade, decided per feature by what crosses the wire, with the Livewire 3 and 4 release dates and the 3 to 4 upgrade steps.
Read the postSize queue pools with Little's Law, dodge the retry_after bug, and triage MySQL before touching my.cnf.
Laravel and PHP guides from Atyantik, aimed at production rather than tutorials. We size Laravel queue worker pools with Little's Law and dodge the retry_after bug that runs jobs twice, triage MySQL bottlenecks by ranking queries on total time before touching my.cnf, and set activitylog retention by compliance class. Deeper decisions get their own posts: WordPress versus Laravel on your real numbers, PHP versus JavaScript by execution model, and a Forge deploy runbook for DigitalOcean.
