Tools should work for you, not boss you around

PHPStan is a great tool, but if you're not careful it might push you to write code in a way you wouldn't normally write it. How can you balance a tool's strengths with your team's style of writing code?

• (00:00) - We really like PHPStan
• (01:30) - Can you go too far with a tool, though?
• (03:40) - Things to consider if you're newer to Laravel or PHP
• (05:30) - PHPStan has helped us find bugs
• (06:25) - Accessing route parameters in a type-safe way
• (09:22) - Know how the tool works, to make it work for you
• (11:13) - Return types on controller actions
• (14:22) - Silly bit
