In recent years, both Docker and Laravel have exploded in popularity. In this step-by-step tutorial, we will dive into how to dockerize an existing Laravel app to run it locally. Then, we'll make it ready to run in a production environment, like for a web server. We will also deploy it to Google Cloud Run without getting into Kubernetes or any YAML configs, taking advantage of our Laravel Docker container. Let’s dig in!

Background tasks are one of the core pillars when considering web applications for scale. The basic idea is simple: A client makes a request to your web application and in handling that request, your app performs several time-expensive tasks. To allow it to respond to the client faster, the app enqueues a background job to a background processing system. The background processing is then tasked with all the heavy lifting, like computations or I/O operations.

Creating a dynamic, user-friendly interface for your React application can be a challenging task. One of the most important aspects of many modern web applications is the ability for users to easily create and edit text content. That's where a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor comes in. A WYSIWYG text editor provides a rich text-editing experience for users, allowing them to easily format text, add images and links with embedded media, and more.

If you want to run a SaaS app where your customers can each have one of their own domains pointing to your app, then you will encounter two problems: For example, let's say you wanted to provide a status page service hosted at yourapp.com that allows customers to set up their own domain (like status.acmecorp.com) to be served by your app. Let's dive into the solutions..

Serverless technology allows you to build and deploy efficient, scalable, and modern web applications. By going serverless, you can eliminate the need for server management and save time and money. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to utilize the power of serverless by building a full-stack web application using different technologies. If you are ready to take your web development skills to the next level and build a serverless web application, let's get started!

In recent years, the serverless paradigm has become known as a transformative approach to application development, allowing us to focus more on writing code and less on managing infrastructure. Laravel Vapor, a serverless deployment platform for Laravel applications, brings the power of the Laravel framework into the world of serverless architecture.

When handling images in your Laravel applications, you may sometimes be required to edit them. This could include resizing, cropping, or converting images to meet a given criteria.
