Laravel Daily

Laravel AI SDK should be released *today*.
But if you wanna read about it earlier, the DOCS are already live since yesterday: github.com/laravel/docs/blob/12.x/ai-sdk.md

Of course, it's still early, and subject to change.

Laravel tip.
Use the `File` rule facade for fluent image validation.
Chain methods like `image()`, `min()`, `max()`, and `dimensions()` for cleaner, more readable validation rules compared to string-based syntax.

Laravel tip.
I love Eloquent `when()` method for queries longer than 2-3 conditions.

Then it visually looks like ONE statement for filtering, instead of many if-statements.

Of course, alternative is to use external packages like `spatie/laravel-query-builder` but this approach is native.

Laravel tip.

Instead of repeating password validation rules everywhere, use `Password::defaults()` in a service provider to set global password requirements.

Then reference it throughout your app (login/register/profile/API) with `Password::defaults()` for consistent validation.

Laravel tip.
Laravel's `$request->date()` method automatically parses date strings from request input into Carbon instances.

You can specify format and timezone, making date handling in controllers much cleaner than manual parsing.
