It quickly became the application that I put everything in, not just for things to help us manage our lives but also for me to test out new technologies. I'm rewriting it to add new features and play with Flux UI. Check out the features I'll build, and come along for the ride!

John, thank you so much! Its nice to know that someone else can share in my experience, even if I wish we both could not have so much imposter syndrome 😅

This year I really want that to change, and I have a lot of ideas for splitting up our Laravel app into packages that could benefit other folks! So fingers crossed I don’t repeat the existing pattern and I keep the energy level up so I can keep getting stuff done.

I'd love to be able to pass the same options you can in electron. Specifically defining paper size, printing silently and potentially margins. I could work on a PR to add the other options to the electron driver! www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/...

The conference went great! The NativePHP app didn’t work out unfortunately, I needed more pass through options to Electron. But was able to get the old script working. Maybe next year!

If I didn't have a time crunch maybe I'd wait, but I was really hoping to build a name badge printing app before my conference on Friday. I have a command line version that I can fall back on... but was hoping that others could manage the process through a GUI.

Another part of the problem might be that the nativephp/electron repo requires 0.2 of the `@nativephp/electron-plugin` instead of the currently released version of 0.3 (NPM) or 0.4 (GitHub)

Part of the problem _might_ be that the latest version of the electron-plugin isn't available on NPM. www.npmjs.com/package/@nat...
