I had a hell of a time today trying to get lazy loading working on a Volt functional component.
After a couple hours, I had to throw in the towel and switch back to regular Livewire. This is the second thing that should be easy that I've had issues with and found no supporting documentation online. I would not recommend starting with Volt if you're learning Laravel. Skip the beautiful syntax and use regular Livewire. As a beginner you'll be thankful for a working LSP and more readily available documentation.

What's your favorite programming language?
My favorite programming language is C++. There’s something about a sadistic warty goblin that’ll let you make your own mistakes that I find endearing.
For when I want to write productive software, nothing beats Go cumulative average in portability, ease of use, and performance. Every other language for me has shortcomings that result in a worse developer experience for frankly irrelevant games considering the applications I write.
I’m also quite partial to PHP, especially 8, as it’s done a lot to tighten up the language. Most websites I write anymore are PHP (vanilla or Laravel-based). Plus, for an interpreted language PHP makes the smart little choices that make developing larger applications with it manageable.
ZVM v0.7.4 is live. Small QOL update. ZVM will no longer print an upgrade notice after you run `zvm upgrade` :)
