I am looking for new projects that I work and get paid.
Could you give me some helps or project?

As the creator of Shift, my recommendation would be to become an "expert" at Laravel upgrades.

There are so many Laravel applications out there and many are outdated. While I do offer "Human Shifts", I don't have the capacity to upgrade them all and often turn away work.

You could use Shift as a "force multiplier" to do the work - either transparently or white-label.

Going live in an hour to see if I can improve the error messaging within Mockery - ideally to be more human readable and suggestive like Laravel.

I love the livestreams. Do you have any plans to stream adding new features to Shift?

I like keeping the streams shorter these days. Creating a quick PR into Laravel or spiking on a new idea fits best within 20 or 30 minutes.

With that said, I have plenty of things I could stream around Shift. They would just be long. Maybe I'll do those separate.

Are you ever hiring for Shift? As someone who's used laravel since 5, I'd love to work on projects like it

No. I've contracted a few people over the years, including Jess Archer. But I decided a while back not to grow a company/team for Shift. In addition, while I'm a great pair programmer, I'm no manager.
