Herd 1.11: What's new

Laravel Herd 1.11 just got out, and they introduced some interesting features that we have been waiting for long enough.

Here's a summary of what Herd 1.11 includes:

  • Forge Integration: Easily connect local sites to Laravel Forge and deploy directly through the Herd UI or CLI.
  • Profiler: Identify application bottlenecks efficiently with the herd profile CLI command or the /herd-profiler route.
  • Herd.yml: Share site configurations effortlessly across your team.
  • Reverb TLS Support: Launch secure Reverb instances with automatic TLS certificate management.
  • Dump Enhancements: View Eloquent queries, outgoing HTTP requests, logs, jobs, and Blade views without needing additional packages.

With this update, you can integrate your forge project domain with your herd project. And you can use PHP profilers to check culprits that are making your site slow.

And one of the most interesting part is to share your project configuration such as services on a specific ports with your team members. I've written a blog post on how you can share your project configuration with team members in Herd, you can check it out using this link: https://laraveleco.com/herd-share-project-configuration-with-team-members/

Then we have the Reverb TLS Support, which basically serve your reverb on HTTPS.

And they also enhanced the Dump feature of Herd which is a Pro feature of it.

And that's it!
