Our friend Marty Friedel is taking the stage at Laracon AU in Brisbane this November with a talk called High Performance Statamic — the story of dragging a decade-old, 50k-page site into Statamic + Bard and making it FAST.

Just run `laravel new` on a side project idea. Solo by @aaronfrancis.com is busy creating to-dos, spinning up agents, creating sandboxes and running my dev stack. All while I'm sitting back watching YouTube!

ClearingHouse is now live on ProductHunt! 🚀 www.producthunt.com/products/cl...

It's been a while since I launched smth, does posting on ProductHunt still matter these days?

I've had this one in my drafts for a while. We recently needed to set up Satis to distribute private packages. We could have used Private Packagist but we opted to self-host using Satis instead. Here's how we set up Satis on a Laravel Forge server. ⬇️ duncanmcclean.com/satis-larav...

As an OSS maintainer, my new rule is that anything a frontier model can find with some reasonable effort is a 0-day. Hence why I'm now shipping security releases on public holidays.

Ran into something I hadn't considered with clearinghouse.app this week. Accountants/bookkeepers are a big audience for my app, but while one was onboarding, they realised that only admins can install Stripe apps. They only had "Accountant" access (and rightly so) 😬

🚨 Supply chain attack on the Laravel Lang organization: 700+ historical versions across multiple community-maintained Laravel Lang packages were compromised with an RCE backdoor, including: laravel-lang/lang laravel-lang/http-statuses laravel-lang/attributes Laravel-Lang/actions

If you haven't updated Composer to 2.9.8 or 2.2.28 (LTS), do so urgently! GitHub will restart the rollout of their new GitHub Actions tokens later today. They've improved secret masking to cover this Composer issue, but you're safer if you update. #composerphp #php #phpc

The intrusive thoughts overwhelmed my last two brain cells

It's been a busy evening!

In case you missed it, I'm starting to create some video content about @statamic.com... so thought I'd introduce myself, AND ask you what sort of videos you'd like to see. I've got a shortlist of ideas... but here's your make a suggestion (and say hi back!) youtu.be/i74z-3ZDkf4

Over the last few months, I've been hacking away at ClearingHouse. If you use Stripe & FreeAgent, you'll know how tedious it is to manually split payouts and reconcile sales against fees in FreeAgent. ClearingHouse solves that. clearinghouse.app

I'm having an unreasonable amount of fun writing Claude Skills to automate boring maintenance tasks. 🔧 Created one last week to keep statamic/statamic up-to-date with changes to laravel/laravel and config file changes in the main Statamic repo. github.com/statamic/st...

Had fun chatting with @mikelaroy.ca about Statamic 6, Runway and Cargo 🎙️ Check out the first episode of the new season!

Sneak peek into Statamic Labs, where we're currently cooking all sorts of highly requested goods. 😈

André is a solid Laravel/Vue/React developer. Worked closely with him during my time at Steadfast Collective. He's the fastest person I've seen convert a Figma design to TailwindCSS 😅 If you're on the hunt for a freelance full-stack dev, you should reach out to Andre!

In case you missed it, @statamic.com 6 has been released this week. And I think there are three standout features that will help improve the DX for devs, and the UX for content authors. What do you think? What's your top feature in Statamic 6? www.youtube.com/watch?v=q40Q...

Alongside Statamic 6, we also shipped SEO Pro 7 — with a whole pile of new features: 🚀 Structured Data/JSON-LD 🚀 Search Engine/OG Image Card previews 🚀 Improved reports 🚀 Localizable site defaults 🚀 Support for URL trailing slashes

I've just tagged v1.0.0 of Cargo! 📦🚀 Cargo is a comprehensive e-commerce addon for Statamic. It behaves like a first-class citizen - you model your content how you want, and Cargo fits in around it.

On the back of the Statamic 6 launch, I've tagged major versions for all of my addons: • Runway 9 • Cookie Notice 10 • Guest Entries 5 • Simple Commerce 8 Some of them contain notable changes ⬇️

Statamic 6 is here! It's been a year of hard work - so happy to have it out there! 🚀

IT'S HAPPENING!

To use our new Laravel Boost guidelines, run "php artisan boost:install" and select the statamic/cms guidelines. 🤖 We've also optimised the v6 docs for LLMs by creating ".md" versions of our docs and an /llms.txt index. bsky.app/profile/stat...

Just shipped Statamic 6 Beta 4 with @laravelphp Boost guidelines. Will this be the last release before 6.0 stable? We shall see!

Hey @statamic.com devs - with v6 now in beta, and a launch coming soon, some of our addons will require a major version number bump. Iconamic, Logger, Sticky Notes, Stripe Checkout, TinyMCE Cloud and Variable Number. Others are v5/v6 compatible. Check the docs for full details: docs.mity.com.au

They say AI is the end for developers. They say the job market is gone. They say learning to code is pointless. I don’t buy it. I think we're just getting started.
