I will launch a Job Board for Ukrain software devs arriving in Germany specifically, to connect them to companies open to hire them. EU is changing law to allow ukrains to get work permit easier, faster, for longer.
However, I would advise everyone to try to be a freelancer if possible. It is a LOT easier for companies to hire then, even from other countries.
We lost connection to our iOS dev living in Kiyv couple of days ago.
You‘re right, it‘s insane what Laravel‘s ecosystem has to offer out of the box. However, most of these features save you lots of development time AND are free to use. What makes me unhappy here is that a company and its employees benefit from these ‚free‘ features and at the same time they don‘t condescend to mention it in their portfolio or even job listing because it‘s not cool enough.
