Hello, Usual Thursday newsletter. But a little unusual, I offer you to test your knowledge of Laravel core features, you will see a link below. Also I've shot an hour-long live coding session for a real project from Upwork.
Also, big news from Taylor! I intentionally didn't mention Laravel Nova in subject of email, cause there's enough of this word in the links below - it's now officially released. Reading all the tweets and first experiences from real customers, I'm starting to believe this thing is gonna be huge. Still not a direct competitor to our QuickAdminPanel (we have a pivot strategy in worst case) but will be used by many people.
Now, let's get to this week's links, enjoy!

Laravel Filter Scope on a Model

So I find myself writing searchable pages that, via an API or what not, someone can filter the page by different fields on the model. This can end up being a Controller class that does a lot of filters off the Request.
