About the author
Roberto Butti has been working in web development since 2000. He has worked for different markets and companies using several languages/frameworks in both server- and client-side web development.
Today, he is focused on web architecture with Laravel on the server side and various reactive Javascript frameworks, such as Vue and Svelte, on the client side.
Always passionate about performant and scalable architectures, he has found – in Laravel Octane and, more generally, in Open Swoole – an enabling tool for projects where concurrency, real-time communication, and performance are crucial.
