Act Sem 07-14Jul - Tailwind Dark Mode - Livewire Online Store Available

Welcome back to another week! I'm here to share all the updates and content I posted during the week of July 7-14.

Updates on YouTube and the blog

During the week, I uploaded several introductory videos, as I launched both the course and the book. These videos include:

General introduction to the course.

Explanations about the pricing changes, especially for Udemy.

Justification for my learning approach: designed for intermediate to professional learners. I recommend purchasing both the course and the book, as I rely heavily on the book during the explanations.

How to Create a Dark Mode Toggle in Tailwind 4
A new video I published shows how to create a dark mode toggle in Tailwind 4, which changes slightly from version 3.
This toggle is the same one you see in the online store with Livewire:

What's missing from Laravel Livewire's perfection?
From my perspective, the only thing missing from Laravel Livewire's perfection is a state manager.
Compared to technologies like Vue, React, or Angular, they all have one.
Livewire primarily works with components, so a state manager would be a great addition:

How to Update Python
I also posted a video explaining how to update Python.
I had an older version on a Mac and had several issues installing certain versions of Django.
In the video, I show the steps to successfully install the new version.

Courses and Books - Online Stores

I've already released the last remaining content from the online store course:

  1. Implementing smooth transitions with view-transition in CSS.
  2. An Amazon-style notification that notifies you when you've purchased a product.
  3. Implementing dark mode.
  4. Aesthetic details in the interface, such as smooth animations and the use of icons.

Next Course/Book: Online Store with Django

And since I've already finished the Laravel section, I've started developing the same store using Django.
It's basically the same, but using a different technology (for those who prefer working with Python for web development).

I'm starting from scratch: setting up the environment, necessary tools, and now we're starting to work with entities, which will be the basis of the course and the book:
