Run Laravel Scheduled Tasks on Windows

The following are instructions for running scheduled tasks defined in a Laravel project on Windows. The Laravel documentation provides instructions for running scheduled tasks using cron jobs on Linux systems. However, cron jobs are not available on Windows. The built-in Windows Task Scheduler can be used to run scheduled tasks instead.

Create a Scheduled Task

Open Task Scheduler
Select Create Task...
Give the task a name and description
To run the task in the background, select Run whether the user is logged on or not and check the Hidden checkbox.

Vue.js and Vuex - best practices for managing your state

Modyfing state object

Example

If you have to extend an existing object with additional property, always prefer Vue.set() over Object.assing() (or spread operator).

Example below explains implications for different implementations.

	#
	# Use this with or without the .gitattributes snippet with this Gist
	# create a fixle.sh file, paste this in and run it.
	# Why do you want this ? Because Git will see diffs between files shared between Linux and Windows due to differences in line ending handling ( Windows uses CRLF and Unix LF)
	# This Gist normalizes handling by forcing everything to use Unix style.

	# Fix Line Endings - Force All Line Endings to LF and Not Windows Default CR or CRLF
