Design Engineering at Laravel: Jason Beggs on Building Laravel Cloud
Description
The Laravel Podcast is brought to you by Tighten, your friendly neighborhood Laravel experts. Check us out at tighten.com and also by other sponsors you will hear about later in the episode.
Matt Stauffer talks with Jason Beggs, staff software engineer at Laravel and the design engineer behind the Laravel Cloud front end. Jason shares how he unexpectedly became “the Tailwind guy”—and how that path led him to helping build one of the most talked-about products in the PHP world.
They get into what design engineering actually looks like at Laravel: working closely with designers, building in React (even when it’s not your favorite), using AI to handle big refactors, and what it’s like to create a product you’re also the perfect user for.
