Launching Laravel Bytes

Summary

Fly is launching Laravel Bytes, a new publication focused on Laravel and on deploying Laravel applications across the globe. The announcement frames the site as a place for future discussions of global-user-base considerations, along with Laravel tips, strategies, how-tos, and coverage of Livewire and real-time apps. Laravel is supported by the fly launch command, and the documented quick start is to enter an existing Laravel app directory and run fly launch. A more comprehensive guide covers running Laravel on Fly with Redis, MySQL, queue workers, and cron tasks, while the post directs readers to deployment documentation and says a Laravel app can be launched in a few minutes.
