Laravel Tip: If we want to put "sensitive" data in our DB then we can use Crypt Facade and handle these using accessors and mutators. #Laravel #PHP

Laravel Tip 💡 Did you know you can enrich request data using a middleware? For example, resolve the user origin country using their IP and add the country abbreviation to the request.

An efficient way of checking if a relation exists in Laravel is to use withExists. It performs a simple existence check and returns a boolean. By default it would return a "posts_exists" value on the User. You may alias it like in the example below to make it more readable.
