Maintaining Laravel

First published on June 17, 2019 · Last updated on May 9, 2020

A lot of people might wonder what it is to maintain a big open-source project like Laravel and all of its open-source libraries. In this video I'll take you through my daily routine of handling issues and also give you a few tips when posting issues. After the video you'll have a better understanding on what's involved in the process and how time consuming it can be.

There's quite a long intro at the beginning so if you immediately want to start watching at the point when I start handling issues, tune in at 12:47.

About me

I'm a software engineer from Belgium. I work as one of the core team members of Laravel, the popular PHP framework.

I'm also the creator of Eventy, a platform that connects the dots between user groups, speakers, conferences and attendees.

My passions are open-source, growing communities, and building products that people love.
