Extracting Wikilinks for your Markdown Laravel Blog
I recently rebuilt this site so I could write my articles in Markdown. I'm used to writing in Obsidian and have come to rely heavily on wikilinks. Laravel comes with Markdown baked in. Behind the scenes, it makes use of a package called league/commonmark. Commonmark offers a large list of extensions, but as we will see, none of them work to add Wikilinks functionality.

$people, then you can use a magic method withPeople on the view() helper function (or View:: facade) to pass the array to your view. In your blade file, your people array will be available via a $people variable.Route::get('/', function () {
$people = ['Bob', 'John', 'Simon'];
return view('welcome')->withPeople($people);

When it first launched, Laravel Forge was the easiest and cheapest way to deploy a Laravel application onto a custom server. Recently, after repeatedly being presented with upgrade banners for new features, I decided to investigate the alternatives before committing to a higher fee. Happily, I stumbled upon Ploi.
At first I was skeptical that anyone could compete with the Laravel Core team who manage the established and stable product that is Laravel Forge, but over a few short hours I was increasingly convinced that Ploi was not only a suitable alternative, but hands down the better offering. Here's what finally changed my mind, made me switch all my sites and end my Forge subscription.
When it first launched, Laravel Forge was priced at $10 a month for unlimited servers, sites and services. This was an amazing and probably somewhat underpriced offering. It was incredible to be able to launch a Laravel site with a few clicks and forget about server management entirely. No more digging around in Nginx config files and hours spent installing the latest version of this or that version of PHP. Over time, more features were added for team functionality. I didn't upgrade because I didn't need access to these features. Later, the basic subscription price was increased slightly for new users, but the fee for users on existing plans remained the same.
