Laravel in Tailwind CSS? How it work on laravel8


Tailwind v2.1 was just released with a new JIT Engine, Filter and Backdrop-filter Utilities, and more. Let's take a look at some of the new features.

JIT Engine | Laravelnote

A few weeks ago, the Tailwind team released a package they were using to expiriment with a just-in-time compiler for Tailwind. With the release of Tailwind v2.1, the JIT compiler is included in Tailwind core. Just add mode: 'jit' to your Tailwind config file and configure the purge property to scan your markup.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  mode: 'jit',
  purge: [
    // ...
  ],
  // ...
}
Filter and Backdrop-filter Utilities
filter and backdrop-filter utilities have been added. These additions have a composable API similar to the transform utiltiies in Tailwind. Apply the filter (or backdrop-filter) class and then you combine utilities for blur, brightness, contrast, drop-shadow, and other CSS filter properties. Check out the possibilities in the Tailwind docs.

<div class="filter grayscale blur-md contrast-200">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>
Other New Features
In additon to the JIT compiler and filter utilities, new blending mode and isolation utiltities have been added. See more examples of the new features in the official release notes.

Laravel Forge Setup on Umami self-hosted analytics | Laravelnote

  Many of us are loooking to move away from Google Analytics where possible. Reasons for doing so include: Data privacy concerns Avoiding cookie warnings Seeking a simpler UI to share with clients/team While looking into alternatives you'll find a range of paid, privacy-focussed SaaS analytics products, as well as some self hosted open source options (some of which are shared by companies who also offer a hosted paid service). I wanted a self hosted option and before settling on Umami.js I also checked: Ackee Plausible (self-hosted, SaaS available) Pirsch (self-hosted, SaaS available) For all I know, these might be great - but I didn't get to a feature comparison or to try any of them out. I went with Umami.js simply because of how I wanted to install it on this occasion: on an Ubuntu VM, with Postgress/MySQL, and without using docker. One nice feature of Umami.js is easily sharing a public dashboard for a website, you can take a look at their own public dashboard (pictured bel...

Laravel8 in Serializes Models trait | laravelnote

This article was originally posted, with additional formatting, on my personal blog at laravel serializes model Background  When dispatching an object onto the queue, behind the scenes Laravel is recursively serializing the object and all of its properties into a string representation that is then written to the queue. There it awaits a queue worker to retrieve it from the queue and unserialize it back into a PHP object (Phew!). Problem When complicated objects are serialized, their string representations can be atrociously long, taking up unnecessary resources both on the queue and application servers. Solution Because of this, Laravel offers a trait called SerializesModels which, when added to an object, finds any properties of type Model or Eloquent\Collection during serialization and replaces them with a plain-old-PHP-object (POPO) known as a ModelIdentifier. These identifier objects represent the original properties Model type and ID, or IDs in the case of an Eloquent\Collecti...
