Laravel is a mature framework; broadly and deeply built out, which means there are a ton of ways to use it that you might not be aware of, but which mostly boil down to letting the Laravel community make all of the technical decisions that aren’t core to the project you want to build. And that is the core potential superpower of open source: community means never having to go it alone.

Great talk, it was fun to watch because you brought the best vibes and had a lot of energy. I thought the content was good and interesting too 👍
Really enjoyed the high energy talk and sharing the backstory of how Lane got here, and how valuable the community was for the speaker. I wish that piece could be brought out and expanded into its own talk. That alone was a 5 thumbs up.
I picked up some Laravel tricks. Maybe I did expect a "oh wow that is a good use-case!", as I'm choosing between different platforms. That was something I had hoped for.
Lane addresses it in your talk that this was still a unpolished presentation, so I look forward to future iterations!
Thanks for sharing your story with us, although I felt it went on a bit long and caused the rest of the presentation to be rushed. Still, I loved the retro screenshots and pics of conference days gone by. You're definitely an engaging speaker!
One of the strongest points I took away from this talk was that when you add a dependency to a project, you are delegating some engineering decisions about your project to a 3rd-party developer or team, so you'd better trust them. This caused me to take a new look at how we decide which dependencies we integrate. Actually, that might make a great talk, too!
