Version 1.23.5 of DDEV brings some exciting new features. Windows ARM64 is now supported, which makes it easier to use on this architecture. Automatic port switching ensures that available alternatives are automatically used when standard ports are occupied. This makes working on several projects in parallel much more convenient.

PHP 8.4 RC1 and PostgreSQL 17 are now officially supported. This is particularly interesting for those who always want to stay up to date. In addition, support for TYPO3 projects without Composer has been improved - an important improvement for all those who integrate TYPO3 in the traditional way.

Some changes require adjustments: The previous ddev get command has been replaced by ddev add-on, which should simplify the handling of add-ons.

Container time zone detection has also been automated, which simplifies configuration and is particularly helpful for international projects.

I'm excited to see how these new features will affect your daily work.

Take a look at all the details of the new version here and share your opinion in the comments.

Hi, I'm Wolfgang.

I have been working with TYPO3 since 2006. Not in theory, but in real projects with real deadlines. I've probably had the problems you're having three times already.

At some point, I started putting my knowledge into video courses. Not because I like being in front of the camera, but because I kept hearing the same questions over and over again. There are now hundreds of videos. Every single one was the result of a specific question from a specific project.

What makes me different from a YouTube tutorial: I not only know the solution, but also the context. Why something works. When it doesn't work. And which mistakes you can avoid because I've already made them.

My participants use me as a sparring partner. Not in the sense of "call me anytime", but like this: You come to the live session with a specific problem, post your question in the community or watch the appropriate video. And get an answer that works because it comes from practical experience.

As a member of the TYPO3 Education & Certification Committee, I make sure that the certification exams are kept up to date. What is tested there flows directly into my courses.
