[00:06] Hello guys. Anyone? Anyone here? 28 people with eight up votes already. Uh, Do you hear me? Do you see me? Everything good. I intentionally started like a few minutes earlier just to say hi. Yes,
[00:20] Bumblebee. One of my one of my most active commenters. Now, I know people by nicknames a lot. This is quite funny. And I a lot of in a lot of cases I don't know the names. Uh but if you want to actually I want to get more personal
[00:35] with you in general. I started a thing on discord for premium members but in general just uh if you have any problem that I can help with with Laravel or your career just uh don't hesitate to email me pulsos laravel.com and let's be
[00:50] email me pulsos laravel.com and let's be more more personally in touch. Right. [clears throat] So as an intro I want to start with uh so uh the plan for today is to analyze uh Lara jobs. Actually I will share my screen
[01:04] Actually I will share my screen probably. Yep. Share screen. Um probably. Yep. Share screen. Um share entire screen.
[01:16] Okay. [clears throat] Right. This looks funny. Uh right. Do do see my screen then you will see that weird uh inception thing. Actually probably I will stop sharing. I will share only one tab of
[01:33] share only one tab of Lar jobs. Lar jobs on your screen? Yep. You see infinity mirror. Sorry. Ironically I'm
[01:46] not that good at YouTube at video and live especially. So, I'm a YouTuber guy who edits a lot, but I'm not that uh professional with live and Zoom and Google Meets and all that. Uh so, yeah, you probably see Lara Jobs now on screen
[02:03] and we will go through that. But I want to actually yeah, let's start with Lara Jobs and then we'll go to other tabs. So, I want to show a few tabs, a few posts about general job market for developers. So AI is not taking our jobs
[02:20] and I have a few proofs and how you can maybe have more chance to get jobs or freelance project. Uh but for now let's just browse through Uh but for now let's just browse through Lara jobs and I will try to react or uh
[02:35] comment. I will zoom the tab in. Let's see. Basically my goal here is let's see what is hot on the market currently. What is trending not necessarily trending what is what is more popular? what are the angles of companies who
[02:48] hire? Because then I can maybe help people to get hired, maybe teach something from another angle, maybe come up with ideas for a course, a YouTube up with ideas for a course, a YouTube video or whatever. So just the first uh
[03:02] the first source for that is Lar Jobs because it's well official Laravel Jobs and a lot of people want to get hired here. Of course, now I'm talking about skills to get hired. I cannot really help you guys with like regional thing.
[03:16] For example, if US company cannot hire outside of US or I cannot help you that much with presenting yourself on the job interviews or CVS that's separate topic. So for now let's focus on the skills. So what are the skills on Lar jobs by
[03:31] people and this is interesting how LAR jobs work. I clicked on the link and the link gets not to lops but usually to the website of the company or some other like Google doc LinkedIn or something like that. So this is one of those case.
[03:45] So this company is looking for head of engineering not even mentioning Lara at engineering not even mentioning Lara at first uh targeting yeah so I will just browse around what we're looking for 5 10 years building B2B SAS products. So
[04:01] it's not even a larable role experience with data processing a IML analytics with data processing a IML analytics and yeah I guess not much more here so head of engineering um yeah not much to com to comment here
[04:17] because it's not that much about Laravel but I guess some companies invest in uh posting on L jobs sorry [clears throat] just get any candidate if the candidate is good enough and the salary is pretty good and then caps must live in USA but
[04:32] this is not a Laravel job but it is on Lar jobs but maybe there's a chance that someone would still uh see that and get hired user escape a familiar company name user escape helpspot I think it's Ian Lansman
[04:47] uh if I don't if I'm not mistaken but anyway they're looking for support engineer what is support engineer I might do with Laravel this is not a full-time development role being a developer will give you huge amount of
[05:01] insight. So this is interesting plot twist. So support engineer who understands Laravel enough to basically answer the questions and potentially document it and fix bugs in the application. So this is great. This is
[05:17] application. So this is great. This is another angle for uh how developers can be helpful in a company. So not necessarily by writing code but also in customer support thinking about it uh even with our team. So myself included,
[05:31] I'm useful not only as code writer but also replying to YouTube comments here. That's also customer support. Uh so this is a great place to be in to be a developer who also can help with technical stuff experience with MySQL.
[05:47] Yeah, tech stack. But this is by the way this is outside of this role tech stack of hub userscape in this case. And let's see what they want. Laravel livewire alpine tall stack. Love it. So I'm a big fan legacy PHP. This is they are being
[06:02] honest. So you are going into like basically two worlds. Tall stack which is pretty modern and then some parts of their applications is legacy PHP. So this is what I noticed for developer roles. If the company has a few projects
[06:16] and you would potentially jump between the projects then uh yeah you you need to be full stack with Laravel 12 and Laravel 7 for example on the same day.
[06:28] This is pretty pretty intense but it's a reality of companies and then on top of reality of companies and then on top of Laravel radius AWS anible and docker and salary looks pretty cool half day Fridays but yeah from those let's
[06:45] discuss guys in the chat so [clears throat] from these which do you [clears throat] from these which do you think uh my help would be beneficial to teach something prepare some YouTube video or course or something on one of
[06:59] those. Uh I will just read in the chat. Do you have anything to say? Uh yeah, thank you for the comment about clearly you explain. Yeah, I'm trying to explain clearly. This is one of my this
[07:14] is one of my thing. Okay. Uh I see Reddus. I see Docker mentioned. Okay. with Reddus. Um actually the thing Reddus is used for so many things that's probably it depends
[07:29] on use case. So use Reddus for what? For caching for other stuff. Uh caching for other stuff. Uh but maybe a course on Reddus would be useful in a way. It's straightforward. It's just like get and put. It's it's a
[07:44] storage engine. But so I'm not actually sure what I could explain. And thinking about it, I do have I think on Laravel Daily, we do have about Reddus. I'm just not sure if it's free or premium, but let me just search in another tab
[07:58] let me just search in another tab quickly. Uh we do have a course about Laravel Q's on server with Horizon and Reddis. Yep, I have Reddus and Laravel 101. Uh written two years ago, but probably
[08:12] still relevant. So, I will put it in the chat. It's a premium article. Uh, but 25 minutes read, 26 minutes, 5,000 words. Pretty pretty intense. Uh, I didn't plan
[08:26] that video to be like advertisement for Laravel Daily or something. But in this case, I don't have anything free. Oh, actually I do have free cashing in Laravel. Simple example. Another another thing may be useful for Reddis.
[08:40] So, this one is free. Uh, and another vote for Reddius by Plone Beer. Okay, so Radius has two votes here to be explained uh in a deeper way with
[08:52] Docker. I was thinking about it, but the topic of Docker is such a huge thing. So it's almost like I have to start explaining Linux first and like how things work under the hood and then I have to uh in a way get server side up
[09:08] tools for Docker. So they have docker image and a lot of things are already prepared or I take Laravel sale but if I take those then people wouldn't really understand docker under the hood so I didn't find for now good angle to to
[09:23] explain docker without spending like three months on it uh so I'm not sure okay we took a look at one job description let's go further fullstack Laravel developer in this case Laravel is in the title great And this is
[09:39] German. But let's try to translate it to English with uh Google translate. This is Chrome translation. So maybe inaccurate, but uh this is interesting. inaccurate, but uh this is interesting. Let me zoom in. So PHP knowledge ideally
[09:54] laravel or symfony. And I see it pretty much all the time in job descriptions, but I'm not entirely sure what does that actually mean. Does that mean that the company has both Laravel and Symfony
[10:06] projects which I don't believe is like often the case or maybe they have PHP projects with one of the frameworks with ability to maybe switch in the future or
[10:18] maybe they just think that if the person knows either of those frameworks then they have general knowledge about PHP and frameworks and would be useful anyway. So I'm not sure how to translate those or similarly like JavaScript
[10:32] experience with react view or or or swelt or whatever. So which one I think the company should be more specific front [clears throat] end experience with Tailwind and liveware again tall stack is growing. This is great news. Uh
[10:47] and nice to have docker prompt engineering a IML with ML engineering. We'll talk about that a bit later in this video. Uh I have a few things to say about that. Uh but yeah, all of that tall stack Laravel German language so
[11:02] that of course limits the uh the ability to get hired and Docker again is here not Reddius or actually Reddius is here and text stack is down below. Maria DB which is probably similar to MySQL so it's not that difficult. So Docker and
[11:19] Reddis the same keywords here and the same tall stack. GitLab this is interesting. So I don't see many companies still using GitLab. But yeah, search me search. This is great. So I was thinking actually to create a video
[11:31] or something about full tag, full uh text search. So I even made uh Paul on Twitter. So what do you use me search, Algolia, Typesense or whatever? And recently actually Jeffrey way posted not sure if you saw on Larcast on YouTube
[11:46] channel. There's a 4hour course on Typesense specifically free outside of Larcast on the YouTube channel. This was [clears throat] this was a surprise for me that it was uh free outside of Larcast. So maybe
[11:59] uh free outside of Larcast. So maybe another topic to dive into is full text another topic to dive into is full text search. Uh and S3 is of course kind of a search. Uh and S3 is of course kind of a no-brainer and AI open AI integration.
[12:12] This is also more and more companies use AI as API. Uh, okay. What? Um, I will get back to chat after reading all uh each each job
[12:24] description and you can comment on that. Uh, oh, I didn't know that Typesense was free on Larcast. So, it's just reposting Cool. Um,
[12:36] anyway, uh, question about junior vacancies for juniors. Um, vacancies for juniors. Um, is PHP still a viable choice? Uh where do I start on this? I I can talk about that for an hour. [laughter]
[12:51] Uh so last week I was on vacation in Grand Canary and thought about a lot how Grand Canary and thought about a lot how we can make PHP uh back again popular again and have more opportunities for juniors as well. And I see the same
[13:04] thing that junior positions not a lot of junior positions in general on the market because of AI. not only because of AI but because of economy first and then AI on top uh for PHP specifically I don't see juniors
[13:19] PHP specifically I don't see juniors almost at all but it's not even that um how do I phrase it to get hired as a PHP or Laravel engineer you kind of need to skip the junior level at all you have to get the experience on junior level
[13:36] almost on your own for your own projects or as intern somewhere but there are no internships publicly. So basically someone should the best way is for someone to believe in you as a junior and uh uh take you on board for I don't
[13:53] and uh uh take you on board for I don't know internship or or help and I might do something like that. I'm thinking to do maybe some kind of like academy or I internship. Uh it wouldn't be paid. uh but uh basically the goal for juniors is
[14:11] to get enough experience to get hired in PHP. So the bar is higher to get hired. Lar jobs is mostly seniors. So things that I will read now on this uh stream
[14:23] that I will read now on this uh stream probably is not for juniors but uh probably is not for juniors but uh another way to start is go to Upwork or any freelance job boards and try to implement the projects uh cheaply. It's
[14:37] not for money, it's for experience. But then you get the experience with real projects. Uh and then you can show that experience to get hired into PHP and experience to get hired into PHP and Laravel role which may be uh paid like
[14:50] normal money not not Upwork money but we'll talk about Upwork a bit later. I we'll talk about Upwork a bit later. I have the tab uh saved for that. Uh let's go. So what are we 15 minutes already? Wow, time flies. Let's go through like
[15:02] three more pretty quickly. Uh, bitter brains another job for full stack view and Laravel 10. This is cool that they are open that they are not on Laravel 12. Uh, what? Oh, Vue school. So, this is like our friends. It's not it's not
[15:19] but I know their project. So, Vue school official Vue certification basically view number one probably resource to to learn Vue. So they're looking for a Laravel developer with Vue and with Nova which
[15:32] developer with Vue and with Nova which is actually based on Vue and what do they actually require? Again let's zoom in a little uh job cues and background tasks with Reddus and Horizon. Okay, so Reddis is a thing. It's trending. Uh and
[15:48] Reddis with Horizon actually I will link in the chat as well. Uh, Reddius and in the chat as well. Uh, Reddius and Horizon. This is part of the course. Um, actually,
[16:03] let me see if it's still relevant. It's a course from 2023 from what I remember, but I don't think much has changed since that since that time. that since that time. And also there's course about Q's.
[16:18] Not sure. I mean I do have course about Laravel Q's and practical stuff. Laravel Q's and practical stuff. Um but again it's a premium thing.
[16:30] Uh there's practical cues on Laravel server. Yep. Found it. Put in the chat. So if Reddus is a thing, Reddus is used in the course of practical Laravel cues. But maybe I should shoot a separate YouTube
[16:46] video uh describing that. So Redd is four cues is a thing view and next in their case. I don't have actually much content with no but I think it's pretty
[16:58] niche for our audience on YouTube. I want to focus on Laravel more and not on JavaScript that much. Tailwind of course backend API with Axios and fetch. GitHub CI/CD [clears throat] pipelines, netly versel or AWS. No
[17:16] pipelines, netly versel or AWS. No Laravel cloud yet here. Uh but okay and AWS is also a [clears throat] pretty huge thing and I do have again course on uh deploying for AWS but I don't want to get too like advertisement here for
[17:31] Laravel daily. Uh let just Google Laravel AWS and you will find uh something that uh something that I published in the past backend development. So Nova is still a thing with Nova. This is
[17:45] interesting story. So filament is taking the market by storm and tall stack as you saw but Nova is still used. It's not like totally dead but it's not actively advertised on stage. So I think it will become like less and less popular. job
[18:01] cues and background tasks. Actually this thing so point number four is the thing that I would advise everyone to learn all the developers I think I tweeted like a few months ago something like that. So this thing understanding how
[18:14] cues work with like big scale like for example if you have to send 10,000 example if you have to send 10,000 invoices at once or if you have to uh invoices at once or if you have to uh send like perform a lot of tasks in some
[18:27] batches or something like that. So this is very common operation for bigger companies and just learning that would help you massively optimize laral API performance. So yeah that's another thing with but this is more like
[18:42] database query optimization indexing. This is also I've talked about that so many times on this channel and on Laravel Daily and elsewhere. Eloquent performance uh is still like number one topic how to make database faster. Uh
[18:57] but there are such such a big amount of free tutorials on that. I think I don't free tutorials on that. I think I don't want to repeat myself. Um
[19:09] okay. Hi Popal, you're also in the chat. Nice to see you. Uh you're saying they need whole IT department in one dev. To be honest, a lot of job advertisement, job descriptions look like that, like
[19:23] descriptions look like that, like department in one development. Um with Reddis can you say can you say or explain what does level of knowledge with eos like Reddus when the job description ask for it? Um
[19:43] is I know how to set by reading the docs. So yeah, that's that's the basics, but setting up Reddus uh for your local machine or local cache or Q is like step
[19:55] step zero, step one. Like it works. Yay. Okay, we can move on. But what actually is needed on the jobs is basically the same but at scale for a lot of users at same but at scale for a lot of users at the same time. Uh so this is probably
[20:09] what is missing thinking about it in a live mode. What is missing for developers to learn something is that tutorials explain like the 101 how to tutorials explain like the 101 how to set up things, how to make make it work.
[20:23] But the experience in real projects usually require like more more scale basically more users, bigger database, more traffic, live traffic, uh reacting
[20:35] to errors quicker. So it's totally different uh different use case for the same thing like radius. uh so uh so yeah uh I'm not sure how to explain it to answer the question
[20:52] explain it to answer the question uh right and let's move on to other few things few job description and then I will of of jobs what I think senior Laravel full stack engineer those titles like
[21:08] engineer full stack so yeah we're talking about like person quite often but let's see uh one in health senior developer react and typescript so this is another thing looking at trends I see laravel as the back end but what people
[21:24] use for the front end is like react with typescript is like sexy and growing because AI actually and because of nextjs uh trending because a lot of AI
[21:36] actually writes the code for react so it's getting more popular but also to stack is getting more popular and Vue.js is still popular. So all three of those is still popular. So all three of those are popular on different uh levels and
[21:50] are popular on different uh levels and you can find the jobs for all three uh companies possibly three tax st tax. So it's your maybe choice what to uh what to invest in. React will give you more benefits outside of Laravel. So
[22:06] that may be the more longer term strategy. But if you are if you want to strategy. But if you are if you want to stay backend more so then live wire and to stack is better to not dive into JavaScript world.
[22:19] Uh so yeah what else here? Dutes responsibilities qualifications. Okay. Uh proficient in Typescript. Okay. So TypeScript is not just uh it's TypeScript inertia. So this is real stack react inertia typescript and
[22:36] stack react inertia typescript and Laravel also tailwind also MySQL. So nothing really too different here. Docker but familiarity with docker with docker is also is same as radius I cannot explain reddis. So I cannot
[22:48] explain docker because docker is used like to do what to share the docker images between the team to deploy stuff to scale stuff. it's
[23:00] to deploy stuff to scale stuff. it's like such such a big topic in itself uh experience in clinical research. So this is interesting but another thing uh this is interesting but another thing uh while preparing for jobs I see people
[23:14] kind of bombarding the CVs the same CV to every company and for some reason they don't get reply but what I would do what my advice would be is to uh kind of
[23:26] prepare specific CV individual CV for every company because some companies in every company because some companies in their job description uh have some items some descriptions some requirement which may be a fit for you. Maybe some of you
[23:40] do have something related to clinical research or something. Maybe your wife is clinical researcher and you've heard a lot of terms from her for example. So, [clears throat] so yeah, uh every every job description
[23:54] should be met with a CV kind of tailored for that company and that would uh improve your chances to get noticed at least not necessarily hired. and pest browser. This is great that pest browser testing is a thing because when pest 4
[24:10] came out and I shot a video about pest for browser testing, it was surprisingly uh unpopular as a video. I thought it would be like big hype and big thing. So, we're replacing Laravel desk with past browser testing, but apparently not
[24:24] many people are doing browser testing at all. Okay, so we have real stack here and let's do one more senior software engineering
[24:36] position closed. Okay, this is another thing with uh Lara jobs. Uh I noticed thing with uh Lara jobs. Uh I noticed that not that many jobs. So we covered for like five six days or one week now. Uh so it's like one per day. It's
[24:51] actually it's bigger than it used to be. A few months ago it was a few per week. Now it's more. Okay. So the job market is back again more active. Uh but let's
[25:03] let's see one more verify you are human. Am I human? Let's see for now. Let's Am I human? Let's see for now. Let's let's see in the chat
[25:16] another topic. What about Docker? [clears throat] Uh so yeah, with Docker, can you reply in the chat? In our company, Docker is mandatory for developers. But what do you actually do with that? mandatory to do what
[25:28] what do you think which is the first right now view I commented that it's right now view I commented that it's maybe anything docker is used uh right we use docker for local setup okay so for local setup for each
[25:42] developer so for example when someone gets hired or someone starts with a new project so that doesn't happen too often I think code reviews probably important yeah code reviews I was thinking to like
[25:55] shoot a course or YouTube video or something about efficient code reviews. Uh, but I'm not I'm not sure if it's even a topic, but code reviews became even a topic, but code reviews became even more uh active now with AI. So, we
[26:08] even more uh active now with AI. So, we we need to review code written by AI. Uh, do they mean like knowing the ins and outs or every technology? Um, dockerized dev environment. So, you hit the same versions and settings with all
[26:22] the environment. Okay. So you're talking about like staging servers, virtual environments, uh, and yeah, I guess so. But do many companies have that as
[26:34] requirement? Probably bigger companies do have that. And probably each company have their own Docker setup or preferences. So I'm not sure uh I'm not sure how can I help here with with like local
[26:51] I don't know with with small amount of content for docker uh question can you give me some good free course for laravel and view free course actually view school had free week or free day pretty recently
[27:06] um I don't have free course for laravel and view unfortunately I have Laravel for beginners but without view uh with view everything like view start target and everything I don't have free uh sorry for that but I think if you google
[27:22] like laravel and view on YouTube I think there will be a lot of courses uh so yeah I cannot answer that with docker I will think about it I keep coming to that topic again and again but I cannot really choose the angle for
[27:37] docker what is the what is the best thing what is the best angle okay that isolosity fullstack web developer. Let's zoom in and let's see laravel 12 and react. So this is where we again meet real stack Laravel react tailwind and
[27:53] inertia uh and Canada in this case minimum of one year of experience with Laravel. So this is good. This is almost junior position actually but at least three years of experience with JavaScript. So
[28:07] this is one example that I mentioned earlier. Vue, react or spelt. So which one? I mean company should probably choose one of those but probably they already mentioned that react here on top. But this [clears throat] is
[28:20] probably the idea that if you know Vue you would switch to React relatively quickly. Uh what else? HTML CSS get uh REST APIs.
[28:34] So I think actually this job description if we don't uh like if we discard Canada if we don't uh like if we discard Canada as uh authorization this the most juniorish uh I saw in in recent like days or
[28:48] something. So three years of experience. So you need to do something for a few years. But that is uh how do I phrase that for juniors for example in other professions for example my wife is a dentist. Uh and for like medical and for
[29:04] example for lawyers it's pretty common to have unpaid or like lower paid internships to get practice in order to get a proper practice in order to get a proper licensed jobs. So my wife is currently
[29:18] uh she's not a youngster. She's outside of university for like I don't know how many years but she's still studying paying her own money to get some degree qualification for some dentistry something. Uh and then again she would
[29:33] something. Uh and then again she would have to pay for um assist someone uh to get to get the practice. So I guess this is what developers need to get used to is what developers need to get used to these days to get hired as a junior. Uh
[29:47] you need to get practice, I don't know, mentored by someone, let's put it this way. And then you can apply for jobs like this. When you have experience when your GitHub is full of examples and pretty impressive examples,
[30:01] then you can apply for jobs like these ones on Lar jobs. Okay, let's close uh close the screen. Stop sharing for now. I will get back in full mode. Let's
[30:14] browse the chat for now and I will show a few more things about the jobs. Uh what I think okay we don't see docker because of the size of the project. We don't use docker because size of the project. Okay. Uh sale is great. sale is
[30:30] project. Okay. Uh sale is great. sale is great, but I think it's kind of I don't know not popular because I I saw people complaining about sale not working with with various things. Um question, will there be a discount for Black Friday?
[30:45] Yes, I'm working on that with a few surprises on that. So, I'll probably publish that next week sometimes mid next week. Uh there will be a Black Friday disord uh discounts. Sorry, I need to drink.
[31:05] make like 15 20 minutes more. Uh, question, do you have courses in Russian? No, I don't. Have you find some remote jobs? Um, I think Punapal is
[31:17] job at the moment, so I cannot answer that. Um, the bottom has fallen off the job market. Ex extensive layoffs. I will comment on that in a few minutes. Uh can
[31:30] you give me some challenge junior midlevel because I've done brainstorm academy full stack. I have certificate but I want to learn view and Laravel. but I want to learn view and Laravel. So challenge junior midlevel. Uh I'm
[31:42] thinking about that. So this is part of my idea to get like academy or whatever where someone would implement the projects put on their GitHub and I would projects put on their GitHub and I would kind of mentor that. Uh but we'll see.
[31:56] We'll see when. For now, it's still an idea. It's still in shaping. Can I find Laravel and view development job? Currently, I'm looking for a job. [clears throat] For those looking for jobs, can you
[32:10] explain actually um to not stop the the live stream, can you email me poaseldaily.com uh and explain your situation? Where are you looking for jobs? How many CVs have you sent? Have you got any feedback from
[32:23] you sent? Have you got any feedback from them? uh and what companies are you I don't know aiming for uh so the there are a lot of things to to find a job uh in the process of how people try to find the job so sometimes the skills are
[32:38] there but what is missing is presentation skills or CV writing skills also there could be a mismatch geographically unfortunately for some geographical areas is harder to get hired in for example US or like UK or
[32:53] hired in for example US or like UK or other countries uh who tend to be more local not remote and also of course there's a huge competition now for jobs so maybe you have to stand out with how you again how you present yourself it's
[33:06] experience you have to I don't know stand out somehow so email me and I maybe can help with some advice uh
[33:18] niche thing but I have never seen anyone talk about things need to change from soul to working as a team. Yes, I had a few YouTube videos on that actually. I few YouTube videos on that actually. I will uh I will look it up. Team I think
[33:32] will uh I will look it up. Team I think I have tips for working in dev team. What was the video four years ago? But yeah, I'm I mean still relevant mostly relevant. So I will put it in the chat. My video four years ago. So I used to
[33:47] talk much more about uh dev career in general videos from my car. if someone you someone remember those but this is one of those videos where I talk about what to learn to switch from solo to the team and this may be one of the um what
[34:03] one of the problems when getting hired uh so yeah get repos and yeah so people need to get experience with working in a team so that's why if I do an academy it
[34:15] team so that's why if I do an academy it will be teambased assignments so people would also get used to to Git and and team environment. Is PHP still hot? Uh it's colder. Let's put it this way. Uh but yeah, if if you notice my tweets and
[34:32] um stuff actually maybe some of you haven't seen last week, I've published a haven't seen last week, I've published a huge thing which got like 450 stars on GitHub at the moment. uh examples of large PHP and Laravel projects with
[34:47] stories of people who work with Laravel and PHP like millions of requests, thousands of dollars earned. So yeah, PHP is still used in in a lot of companies uh and it's not dying or anything but it's more like on the back
[35:02] end and not many people talk about it loudly. So this is why it seems uh not hot but there are still a lot of opportunities. Uh right the question I'm
[35:14] from Bangladesh and having time to find remote job. Uh so yeah email me and I remote job. Uh so yeah email me and I will try to help. Uh lower the price. Uh lower the price for what? For courses I will have Black Friday deals. If I lower
[35:28] the price then I will probably have to stop doing courses because I would not have time or stop doing YouTube uh and do only paid courses. Not sure because if I if my income gets lower then I would have to uh get back to uh
[35:44] programming consulting job and would probably stop doing courses at all or or [clears throat] All right, what else in the chat? Uh these days jobs rely more on connections than online job searching. Very very
[35:59] good point. So the best way to find a job is if someone knows someone who knows someone who knows you. something like that. Uh so the jobs that are on the market officially, it's usually jobs that failed to hire someone from their
[36:15] inside circle. So basically the more people know that you are available and you're looking for a job and what are your skills uh the better. Uh yeah, PHP renaming about his bad reputation. This is a cool idea, but of
[36:30] your prediction for a PHP Laravel developer in 5 years? I see very good future for Laravel. PHP is not hot anymore but Laravel is hot and getting hotter and Taylor and the team are doing all of that uh more possible.
[36:47] Uh Afghanistan buy courses too much for me actually for some countries I have uh me actually for some countries I have uh so-called PPP discount uh parity power purchasing I think it's called. So it's up to 40% off which is automatically
[36:59] applied when you visit unl. Um and yeah right so uh nothing more actionable in the chat. So let's do another thing. Let's let me show you a few tweets. Uh so let [clears throat] me
[37:16] few tweets. Uh so let [clears throat] me share my screen and I received this comment. I hope you see that on screen. Yep, you do. Uh so Aspia
[37:32] uh it was a comment on LinkedIn on some other topic. I don't even remember the topic, but I screenshot it and put it on Twitter. [clears throat] The approach to go to Upwork, take a task, implement and upload it on GitHub. I mentioned that
[37:44] earlier in this video, and I've been doing that quite a lot in my demo projects on YouTube. So I put something uh on Laravel daily project examples. I shoot a video as an example what you could be um kind of playing around with
[37:59] and you can put it on your GitHub and then it would help to land employers and clients and asphere reports that [clears throat] it actually works. My voice is getting out so I think I have like max 10 more minutes. So this is an
[38:12] like max 10 more minutes. So this is an example uh for juniors especially if you uh if you practice more and create some demo but more serious demo project and put it on GitHub uh that could be your chance to to get [clears throat] noticed
[38:26] at least. So for example, if you put something about um for example the same pharmaceutical, uh just research with Chad GPT whatever something about medicine, put some medical CRM on GitHub with a few
[38:43] medical CRM on GitHub with a few screenshots, uh and then send that link to GitHub or to clickable project to a potential employer in that specific niche. that would massively increase your chance because uh that company
[38:56] would be looking for someone who knows at least something about their niche. So this is one of the examples right this is one thing I wanted to show you with stop sharing uh and I will answer a bit more uh thing punal is asking what are
[39:11] anything it's just YouTube live I just clicked uh clicked go live and that's it uh right and another thing I wanted to share is about economy the recent study
[39:23] share is about economy the recent study that I found and also shared on Twitter that I found and also shared on Twitter uh this is the thing I've shared it. Uh, okay. So, this is the tweet. There's a link that I will put in the chat so you
[39:37] can read that in full. Pretty pretty long article. Uh, I found it on hacker long article. Uh, I found it on hacker news. So, someone analyzed 180 million jobs to see the difference between 2025 and 2024. So, what jobs are
[39:53] getting lower? And declining jobs are not developers. So artists, course it's kind of obvious if you think about it. So AI is taking their jobs uh here but uh with developers the data
[40:09] suggests the opposite. The number of software engineer jobs is not in the decline. It hasn't changed much. Although the whole market uh the the whole was the average number was minus 8% but for developers it was 0%. And for
[40:26] specific machine learning engineers and AI engineers uh it was like huge again AI engineers uh it was like huge again obviously huge rise. So this may be the area that you want to invest in. But of course it's not enough to like create a
[40:43] course it's not enough to like create a demo project or or read a tutorial on ML because ML machine learning is is pretty deep. It's almost like mathematical in a way. So it's much harder to adopt uh than PHP for example than Laravel.
[40:58] But maybe if you if you're looking into a career like two three years ahead. So maybe you can start working on that point. Um but also with that said uh I
[41:12] worked with Python like last no two years ago I made an experiment uh have a YouTube channel Python ML daily and I was trying to learn ML and also teach along the way on YouTube and I realized that with ML you have to and with Python
[41:28] and with AI in general you have to relearn constantly. So Laravel and PHP and web in general is relatively more stable even with changes like React getting trendy or LiveWire getting trendy or Tailwind versus Bootstrap or
[41:43] stuff like that. It happens usually in like years. In ML and AI, it happens in like weeks and months. You have to learn new tools, how to optimize this, what model to use, how to so like it's if you
[41:58] go this route, there's a reason why those developers are well- paid machine learning engineers. Uh because it's it's pretty hard. uh so after learning some of that uh I was like really drained compared to web development also another
[42:14] thing front- end engineering jobs have declined and with that I think I think uh what AI will do or already is doing is taking away the jobs of like
[42:27] startups like Lavable and Balt and even just general ML uh LLM model you can ask just general ML uh LLM model you can ask LLM to to prepare a pretty designed for would have to like tweak things here and there but uh front end engineers is like
[42:44] there but uh front end engineers is like relatively easierish to replace compared to back end because for back end you need to also know not only to generate the code but how to deploy how to scale it and stuff like that. For front end uh
[42:56] I don't I cannot say anything bad about front- end engineers. It's actually more difficult to learn with all the browser testing and uh various like even browser things like Chrome versus Firefox versus Safari and stuff. [clears throat] But it
[43:11] seems like uh the numbers suggest at least in this study that front- end engineering jobs have declined. So yeah, I wanted to show that and let's discuss that in the chat and I will answer a few more questions and we'll end the stream
[43:25] more questions and we'll end the stream with that. So what did I miss in the with that. So what did I miss in the chat?
[43:37] nice to see you. What best front-end framework? I answered that already. There's no best front-end framework, but I think that React will give you more opportunities outside of Laravel. um
[43:56] struggled to find another job ended migrating to Node and Java uh PHP in Brazil. So that's a Brazil situation. Uh interesting interesting story. Maybe we should talk about that more.
[44:11] Maybe we should talk about that more. I'm thinking actually um maybe to start going outside of Laravel a little. So maybe I'm thinking to create a next JS course for someone who may want to uh switch or expand their opportunities.
[44:25] switch or expand their opportunities. I'm not sure. Uh right.
[44:37] All right. A few more comments. Hello Pogas. People saying hi and thanking me. I thank you back for watching. Uh, does the AI world is very demanding as you describe? Uh, I'm not
[44:50] sure. The yellow cheese magazine questions are so broad. I'm not sure how to answer that. Uh, what do you think about web development in long term? This is a philosophical discussion when we had that discussion. So, while I was in
[45:03] Gran Canaria, I met a guy Simon Hamp uh native PHP creator. So, Simon and Shane are the team of native PHP and he lives in Gran Canaria. That was a surprise for me. So we met and we talked about so what happens next what comes next as a
[45:17] what happens next what comes next as a wave of how we use it in general. Uh and I already had a video on my YouTube channel about the search future. So the thing how we search for things will fundamentally change because of AI
[45:30] assistance. So instead of googling instead of using filters on Sky Scanner instead of using filters on Sky Scanner to search for flights we will prompt for or voice prompt for pretty much everything. I think in like 5 years or
[45:42] so. So there will be like web development behind the scenes like the back end isn't going anywhere but the front end I think will massively change. We will have uh applications we will have so that's why native PHP I think
[45:57] has a bright future because it's crossplatform and then uh so chat GPT and stuff the assistant way of of using stuff uh using the backend data will become like more and more growing. I'm not sure uh you
[46:12] can comment here. Do you use Google or do you go to Chad GPT for or claude to search for something or perplexity? I think more and more of us go directly to think more and more of us go directly to LLM uh to discuss stuff. Uh right,
[46:26] another question. If I already know everything that you're teaching guideline for junior to senior, why I'm not considered as senior? Maybe you not considered as senior? Maybe you don't present yourself as senior enough.
[46:40] So, how do you define that you're senior? Usually, seniority is proven by either previous job experience uh or some I don't know some proof, some practical experience that you actually did practically. Uh so your question is
[46:55] if I already know everything that I teach, have you actually practiced that? So by no have you read about it the tutorials or have you actually created a project to implement all of that and that project you can show either code on
[47:09] GitHub or real project that would impress potential employers so that's seniority um another question how does the future look for web agencies um
[47:23] it will get harder another actually thing I heard on a YouTube video that web agency will become more efficient because of AI. Uh but another side of the story is that uh AI helps to generate the code but
[47:39] then another bottleneck becomes reviewing the code. We talked about that a little earlier. Uh so not necessarily it becomes faster or not necessarily it becomes faster or cheaper especially for team environment.
[47:53] So on Reddit there's u claude I think. So go to Reddit cloudi. Actually I will Google it quickly because I've read it pretty recently. pretty recently. There was a story.
[48:11] cloud code for six months why faster code generation hasn't improved our team velocity. So this is the title of that Reddit post. So you can read that. So AI Reddit post. So you can read that. So AI doesn't currently yet doesn't change
[48:26] much for agencies. Uh but we'll see what happens. We we need to get back to that topic like month after month. Even now like I'm start I've started uh creating new course about Laravel and AI. Although I had courses on cursor cloud
[48:41] code and junior at the time in summer so many things have changed what is like in four months five months. So I need to recap again with new versions with codecs with new models and stuff like that. So we need to redisuss that from
[48:57] time to time constantly. Also Renato is saying for Brazil it's much more sense code for yourself become entrepreneur. This is another thing another path for you. So if you don't if you can't find a job for example or
[49:11] maybe you don't want to uh but it has to be in kind of your DNA in a way to become an entrepreneur because it's way different than just coding than just creating stuff. So you need to get good at marketing, sales, uh pitching,
[49:24] entrepreneurship and stuff like that. But this is like the the ideal future for a lot of developers. But uh it's not as sec [clears throat] as as sexy as it as sec [clears throat] as as sexy as it looks uh in the beginning. Uh yep.
[49:46] Mahmood saying hello. Hello. Just joined. Okay guys, uh 50 minutes in. So enough for this live stream. I have um I also had a plan to search to go through Upwork uh like jobs what are there but probably for the next live stream
[50:00] because it's already a lot a lot of time and I have other other things to do and I have other other things to do today. Uh so yeah, thank you for for joining. Um thank you for your comments. Again, I
[50:13] questions that I can help with in your career or points to some specific, I don't know, tutorial course or something, don't hesitate to email me, pavelar.com. And if you have any ideas for future
[50:27] live streams as well, I will from time to time, if I have time and if I have energy, uh will jump on YouTube pretty randomly. I don't plan it anymore. I tried to plan it but I failed it. So it cannot be any every week or or uh or
[50:41] every month or something. We'll see. Uh so okay, thank you for now and yeah, see so okay, thank you for now and yeah, see you guys in other videos.
