One of my favorite courses of all-time, and I'm sure it's beyond better now. If you want to get better at screencasting, this is THE way to do it.

We have been working hard to make screencasting​.com the comprehensive destination for all things screencasting. 🎉 We're excited to announce FIVE new courses 🎉 • How to Screencast • Screenflow • Premiere Pro • DaVinci Resolve • Final Cut Pro But that's not all!

Today we talked about Brian's launch – how did it go? Near the end, @justinjackson.ca and @briancasel.com debate the merits of different pricing approaches. What do you think? Reply here with your thoughts!

I sat down with Josh Howard from Cloudflare and asked him my most pressing question... What *is* a Durable Object? We spent the next hour talking Durable Objects, D1, Workers, and how the whole Cloudflare platform works. You're gonna love this one. youtu.be/C5-741uQPVU

Absolutely loved this talk between @aaronfrancis.com and Heikki Linnakangas. I get drawn in by these kinds of deep dives. Watching someone with 20+ years in Postgres talk about their craft and the work that goes into a piece of software like Postgres and Neon. It's truly inspiring. #postgres

Taking inspiration from @aaronfrancis.com's weekly newsletter and going to share some links/videos/posts I found particularly interesting this week... Want to join along? 🧵

I recorded a new video about building a model reservation system *on top* of Laravel's atomic locks. It's kinda wild, and I got to use generated database columns so you know I was pumped about it. youtu.be/czHUFCWVY0c

"I'm discovering Miami from first principles" was a phrase uttered as I held my head in my hands

Wrote up some of my thoughts on what it means to be nice versus what it means to be kind. aaronfrancis.com/2025/you-can...

I was a kid once too aaronfrancis.com/2025/i-was-a...

do we hate or love @aaronfrancis.com for this?

Love this: "For me, I just kind of YOLO everything. If the audience wants to follow along, that's great! Because I have to do this for many years, I have to want to keep going." – @aaronfrancis.com

New episode of The Panel: Online courses and YouTube – good business? ( @aaronfrancis.com and @mariepoulin.com share their experience ) What do you think? Reply here with your thoughts!

X user Aaron Francis is planning to officially launch Fusion today and we have an exclusive interview with him that’ll drop when it launches. 🎉

i’ve been watching video courses while i meal prep recently. about to finish @aaronfrancis.com’s excellent screencasting.com course. tons of actionable tips, insights, and confirmations. very worth the investment. and a great looking example of a video course. two thumbs up.

I built a tool to automate integration tests on my command line tool! I'm pretty pleased with it. youtu.be/C-S8zwiB2CA

This week on MT, @aaronfrancis.com is fresh off the Laracon EU stage and he wants to know how @ianlandsman.com feels about Fusion - is he a yes man? A medium man? A no man?!

“Fusion does not abolish inertia, it fulfills inertia.” Sometimes I feel like @aaronfrancis.com is writing jokes just for @coulb.com and me.

Some true innovation from @aaronfrancis.com at Laracon EU, really pushing the boundaries and showing us how it's done Total high wire act and he absolutely nailed it 👏 (Also how am I suddenly tearing up during a hard technical talk)

I love that @aaronfrancis.com just does the things people say you can't do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sa3X...

This design work @wking.dev did for @aaronfrancis.com and Try Hard’s open source projects is epic! 🙌

I built a GUI in the terminal! With PHP! It has tabs, modals, scrolling... everything. Go watch the tour! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ucgr...

Just got a peek at @aaronfrancis.com’s [REDACTED] that will be introduced at Laracon. Be prepared to have your mind blown.

Htmx, Alpine.js, and Tryhard Studios mentioned in one video? Courses and course platforms are so hot this year. youtu.be/v9NC2P328sI

If you want to learn Rails or get better at Rails this is definitely a course you want to check out!

Just got off of a great chat with @aaronfrancis.com talking about trying hard, betting on yourself, and what he's excited to talk about at #EpicWebConf. See you in March!

I'm going to be bummed when these fellas release a trailer that doesn't absolutely SLAP but good news for us that day does not look like it's anytime soon

This is so cool, and no one better to do it than @fractaledmind.bsky.social and @aaronfrancis.com. Happy that @honeybadger.io can play a small part. Can't wait!

I'm incredibly excited to announce that we've partnered with @fractaledmind.bsky.social to produce our first course on Ruby on Rails. Sponsored by @hatchbox.io and @honeybadger.io, High Leverage Rails is an in-depth video course on Rails + SQLite for beginners. Coming in February!

This week on MT, @ianlandsman.com & @aaronfrancis.com talk about why Blade performance is so freaking important. Assuming Dagger (github.com/Stillat/dagger) works as expected - should something like this be pulled into the core?

The new ad format we've come up with for this is going to be really good for small companies (and large). Branding focused ads at a great price. bsky.app/profile/most...

🚨 Exciting news! 🚨 You can now sponsor Mostly Technical! 🎙️ Our unique ad format of short, engaging ad reads that run all month long is perfect for building strong name recognition with our tech-savvy audience. 🚀 sponsor.mostlytechnical.com

If you work with databases enough, you’ll eventually need to migrate a database from one RDBMS to another. This can be challenging, but it doesn’t have to be! My latest article for @aaronfrancis.com covers planning migration of a DB from SQLite to Postgres. masteringpostgres.com/articles/mig...

At the beginning of 2024 I had newborn twins and two-year-old twins, I developed arthritis, and I got laid off while on paternity leave. Since then, Steve and I started a business and doubled our old salaries. 2024 was the hardest year of my life. Here's my review 👇

Mastering postgres is the best course I've ever bought by far

Everyone needs to read this!! Thank you @aaronfrancis.com 🫡 #mentalhealth aaronfrancis.com/2024/an-argu...

Kicked back yesterday lunch time to rewatch some parts of @aaronfrancis.com 's screencasting course. Thinking about the content I want to create in 2025. I need Santa to bring me a new camera. And new slippers, evidently...

Episode 64: Yes Man - is live! Ian has a Christmas present for Aaron; the guys look back on 2024 and forward to 2025. Finally, they break down MT ad revenue for 2024 and set a goal for 2025. share.transistor.fm/s/5d2e730e

I'm starting to work on my year in review and boy, it's a doozy. Is there anything in particular you'd like to know?

Ever hear anyone go full galaxy brain in real time? @aaronfrancis.com does just that as we chat about Solo, his new TUI project: sideprojectpodcast.com/episodes/sol...

Just published a video reviewing @aaronfrancis.com’s Solo package—it’s seriously impressive! Ended up making two open-source contributions live during the recording. youtu.be/1_u2iHVJ7tI?....

Nice quick walk through of Solo. Maybe TUI apps aren't so bad? 🤔 bsky.app/profile/nuno...
