+## Entry model
+
+```bash
+php artisan make:model -m Entry
+```
+
+creates skeleton files for a model and migration
+
+we edit the migration to hold the fields we desire to be present in each record
+
+just the minimal are added for now, paying attention to the amount of data that these may need to hold
+
+* string (varchar): ~255 chars default.
+* text: ~65 KB.
+* mediumText: ~16 MB.
+
+```bash
+php artisan migrate
+```
+
+runs the migration to create the table
+
+## Entry filament resource
+
+```bash
+❯ php artisan filament:resource Entry
+
+ The "title attribute" is used to label each record in the UI.
+
+ You can leave this blank if records do not have a title.
+
+ ┌ What is the title attribute for this model? ─────────────────┐
+ │ title                                                        │
+ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+ ┌ Would you like to generate a read-only view page for the resource? ┐
+ │ Yes                                                                │

+ ┌ Should the configuration be generated from the current database columns? ┐
+ │ Yes                                                                      │

+
+   INFO  Filament resource [App\Filament\Resources\Entries\EntryResource] created successfully.  
+```
+
+There is more work to do on this model but  for now, a new resource is added to the admin panel by which records can be added, edited, listed.
+
+Full CRUD is already possible. This is amazing if you think how long this would have taken to create all this manually.

+
+
+### slugify
+
+```php
+                    TextInput::make('title')
+                        ->required()
+                        ->reactive()
+                        ->afterStateUpdated(function ($state, $set): void {
+                            $set('slug', Str::slug((string) $state));
+                        }),
+                    TextInput::make('slug')
+                        ->required(),
+```
+
+adding reactive and afterStateUpdted to title automatically creates a safe slug 
+
+I class things like this creature comforts of the framework and it shows how simple it can be to make fields active and updated by previous entries
+
+For the user, this reduces error and confusion over what a url should be 
+
+### rich editor
+
+just changing the TextInput for content 
+
+```php
+                RichEditor::make('content')
+                    ->columnSpanFull(),
+```
+
+to `RichEditr` gives us a 'tiptap' rich text editor
+
+already, this is feeling more like a mini CMS, with relatively little effort
