• Setting up my own labs

    I’m going to begin setting up my own “labs” area to play around with various web technologies.

    For the longest time now I have been holding myself back quite a bit by only really learning technologies around current roles at the time and for my own personal site. This has mainly revolved around Laravel and to a lesser extent WordPress.

    Whilst I will continue to love both of those projects, I do want to start pushing myself to learn things that are completely out of my comfort zone.

    I will also begin writing more about my learning, discoveries and new things that excite me in web development — something I haven’t done for a long while.

  • If I start rebuilding my website in Laravel yet again, I really need to see it through and commit to it. If the last couple of weeks have taught me anything it’s that I love working with Laravel.

    Let’s see how this goes.

  • Finally got my site to use the roots wordpress structure. Composer dependency management and deployment with laravel forge. 🤓

  • The creeping beast of perfection is wearing it’s ugly head into my blog.

  • Gosh, I haven’t written on my blog for ages!

  • Finally finished porting my site over to Laravel 5.1. I’d been avoiding it. Got there in the end. Now to start cleaning up my code.

  • Finally my tags have got their own pages.

  • Really excited about my redesigned website. A lot more focused it feels. Hoping to get it out by mid week next week.

  • Website thus far.
