Hello, This is Povilas from LaravelDaily Team.
Usual Thursday newsletter from me, this week I continue to focus on video content on our YouTube channel. I've formed a separate playlist of my non-Laravel videos about productivity and web-business (already 29 of them, wow!). Also we're focusing on more documentation and examples for our QuickAdminPanel, to show people what you can generate and how quickly.
Finally, I started an experiment of putting one tweet per day with topic "#Laravel tip of the day", so with a tip in 280 characters and screenshot example. So far it's really popular! See an example and follow @DailyLaravel on Twitter - you won't get those tips anywhere else on the page or even this newsletter.
Meanwhile, the community is pretty passive, with summer putting us in vacation mode, so I mix the links with some general tips for developers - see at the bottom. Enjoy the read!

Time saving habits for programmers

Have you ever desired to have more time available for completing your side-projects or meeting the deadline, just like me? Both of us know there cannot be more than 24 hours a day; Better choice is to just use the time that we have in a most efficient way.
