Code Style

PHP

• PHP 8.2+ features: constructor property promotion, readonly properties, enums, match expressions
• Type declarations on all method parameters and return types — no untyped signatures
• Named arguments for clarity on calls with 3+ parameters
• Enums over string constants: FuelType::E10, Recommendation::Wait, NotificationChannel::WhatsApp
• final classes for Services and Jobs — they are not designed for extension

Laravel conventions

• Route model binding over manual findOrFail() in controllers
• Form Requests for any validated input
• config() helper over env() outside of config files — never call env() in app code
• Events + Listeners for side effects (e.g. PricesUpdatedEvent triggers scoring)
• Do not use DB::transaction() manually — wrap in Service methods where needed

Naming

• Services: {Noun}Service — e.g. AlertScoringService
• Jobs: {Verb}{Noun}Job — e.g. SendFuelAlertJob, PollFuelPricesJob
• Events: {Noun}{PastTense}Event — e.g. PricesUpdatedEvent
• Livewire components: {Context}/{Feature} — e.g. Dashboard/FuelRecommendation
• Migrations: descriptive, e.g. create_station_prices_table, add_whatsapp_fields_to_users_table

Formatting

• 4-space indentation (PSR-12)
• Max line length: 120 characters
• Run ./vendor/bin/pint before committing (Laravel Pint, default ruleset)
• No commented-out code committed — use git to recover old code

Security

• Never store raw passwords — Bcrypt via Laravel's Hash facade only
• Validate and sanitise all user input — postcodes, phone numbers, fuel type selections
• Phone numbers: strip non-numeric characters, enforce UK format (07xxx or +447xxx)
• OTP codes: 6 digits, expire in 10 minutes, single use only
• All Stripe webhook payloads verified via Cashier's built-in signature check

Environment

• Local: Laravel Valet or php artisan serve
• Production: IONOS VPS, Nginx + PHP-FPM, MySQL, Redis
• Never commit .env — .env.example must stay up to date with all required keys
• Queue driver: redis in production, sync in testing only
