Why use these packages?

Powerful extensions to the TALL ecosystem

Most packages I make focus on the TALL stack: Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel and Livewire. They are designed to work together and profit heavily from the opinionated design of the stack. Additionally, Filament is often supported as well.

Focus on developer experience

All packages solve a direct need I had during my work. They are designed to be easy to use and require as little configuration as possible. This also means they are opinionated and might not fit every use case.

Modern PHP 8+ features

All packages are written in PHP 8 and use modern features like named arguments, type hints and return types. They are also fully typed and documented with examples to make your life easier.
