On the Build Your SaaS podcast Justin Jackson sits down with Taylor to talk about how Laravel got started and how it went from a side project into a full-time affair.
You can find the full episode on Overcast, and in it hear Taylor talk about going from college to becoming a developer for a trucking company, creating Laravel at night, and later going full-time with Laravel Forge.
Give it a listen if you want to find out the back story, how the business side came about, and more.
