2021: A year in review

Category: Laravel, Laravel, PHP, PHP, api, api

I wrote about saving for a deposit in last year's review. That deposit was eventually used after securing a mortgage and purchasing our first house.

I'm still a full-time developer at https://surewise.com and I've managed to enhance our tech stack even further this year.

We've also adopted https://tailwindcss.com in some of our newer projects and systems, finally making the move away from heavily-overwritten Bootstrap.

We started the year on PHP 7.4 and upgraded to PHP 8.0 pretty quickly and we're now aiming for an upgrade to PHP 8.1 in Q1.
