Laravel and Redis: The Absolute Basics

What does Redis even do? Apart from telling Laravel you want to use Redis as a session driver and just have magic happen behind the scenes, is there anything else that you can use Redis for within Laravel?
Let's take a look at the absolute basics and see if we get some ideas.

Thanks for sharing!
By the way I see you shared your VS-Code theme ... could you tell us which color-theme you used for your previous one (The blue one) .. I know you did some custom configurations but I cannot find the color-pallet you used for the previous one and I am already looking for months

[@joshcirre]

Hi there! My previous VS Code theme was using "Natty".

[@godswillazubike]

I love this video, thanks very much for sharing, can you please share your VScode setup? i love the aesthetic.

[@joshcirre]

Thank you! Most of this setup is stolen from Caleb Porzio's Make VS Code Awesome course, with some tweaks. A lot of the customization is done through the APC plugin, and then the theme is Catppuccin Latte theme.

Thanks for sharing.... Please make a video on progress bar in laravel...with queue

[@joshcirre]

Thanks so much for watching! As in seeing progress for queues? ☺️

[@rally_furymoments5294]

I apologize for any confusion. To clarify, the logic for uploading a video file involves a queue. When the upload button is triggered, the file is sent to the queue for processing, and the progress of the upload is displayed on the web page. 😊

[@joshcirre]

Ooo. I very much like that idea. Would be a great short video. ☺️

[@rally_furymoments5294]

Wow... I really appreciate it 😊🙏❤

What's the app called that you used at 4:08

[@joshcirre]

That is TablePlus. :)

@@joshcirre thank you very much :)

As a 1:1 replacement for redis, just use valkey.

Good point! Might also be able to use Cloudflare's KV store too!
