Welcome
This is just a light welcome post to kick things off and introduce myself and the site.
My name is Shaun Simpson, and I like to build things!
I'm a software engineer and developer from Sydney, Australia. I work hard designing and building digital solutions for people to help them solve their problems and make their lives easier. I have been working with various digital technologies to help people for the last decade and I love it. I am focused on improving the aesthetics and user experience of software, and I am always looking for new ways to improve my craft.
A Simple Laravel Search Helper
A simple example to demonstrate how to build a trait that you can reuse in your Laravel controllers to handle nested relation search automagically. I'll also explain why you would use this and not write the logic onto a model trait instead
Tools I Use
