#webdev #programming #laravel #php

If you loved Migration Guru
for managing Laravel migrations from a web dashboard, you're going to ❤️ the new update.

✨ New Feature: Online IDE with PHP Validation

Now, you don’t just create, run, or rollback migrations—you can edit them directly in your browser with a lightweight IDE, complete with real-time PHP validation.

What’s new

💻 Edit migrations online – update your migration files from the dashboard without touching your terminal or code editor.
✅ PHP validation – catch syntax errors before saving or running migrations.
⚡ Instant feedback – ensure your migrations are valid and ready to run.
🔀 Seamless integration – works alongside all existing features: run, rollback, delete, and filter migrations.

Why this matters

Working with migrations is one of Laravel’s strongest features, but switching between terminal and code editor can slow you down. With the online IDE and PHP validation, you can fix mistakes, tweak fields, or add columns instantly. It’s especially useful when prototyping features or quickly iterating on database design.

📦 Installation
