So now we can look to the future 🙂 The Laravel Long Term Support (LTS) release is here and we are going to build on that great foundation.  

It took about 40 minutes to upgrade from 5.0 with just a few hick-ups due to my own little knowledge of the framework.

It still amazes me how much I can do without having any in-depth knowledge of the framework. And I still feel comfortable with the security and stability of the application I am writing. Performance we shall solve through hardware 😉 Just kidding.
