Blank Screen on Startup

Fix for Tinkerwell showing a blank screen after the January 2026 update.

I purchased a license for #TinkerWell from #BeyondCode team, mostly to support them and support the dev tools for the php/laravel ecosystem.

After couple of months, I just launched the app today, it apparently upgraded automatically beyond my license covers and became unusable.

This is actually the shittiest way of handling this kind of stuff.

Gave #Tinkerwell 4 a spin just now. The interface is definitely improved, very clean. Looks promising.

Disclaimer: I own Tinkerwill (lifetime license I think), but I am not a massive fan of it, often preferring the PHPStorm plugin for Tinker Console. However, this update might change my mind… we will see. A BeyondCode app that I am a huge fan of is HELO. If you haven’t tried that, you should.

Nice work @dianawebdev and those at @beyondcode

Love #Tinkerwell for those that have used it you’ll know why. But… sadly, I find the direction it is going in for my uses is not a good fit. Too many features, and AI… ick. Yeah I know, just don’t use those.

There is also 3v4l Integration from JetBrains, but I can’t help think… why?

I have several PHP versions running locally, why can’t I run test code locally? In VisualCode I used to do this a lot. Perhaps time to just go back to Tinker in my #laravel projects?

Wow, I do have to say that I find this rather creepy from #Tinkerwell / #BeyondCode: I’ve been on holiday for two weeks, and I receive this email from them because I haven't used the app during that time.

#PHP #Laravel

I've seen #Tinkerwell in action with fellow developers, and am intrigued. I'd love to try it out but it does not seem to have a trial version.

What software does not have a trial version?

Or am I missing something? When I click "get Tinkerwell" on their website, I immediately go to the purchase form.

Ok, fine. I just bought a Tinkerwell license. Let's see what this is all about.

#tinkerwell #php #laravel

#tinkerwell users, if you’ve upgraded to the most recent version, does Table View still work for you? When I try table view I cannot get to the bottom table area anymore, the text is cut off with no way to access it. The only solution I was able to find was to delete Application Support/Tinkerwell and reinstall the app. Not ideal but a solution.

It appears that Tinkerwell (tinkerwell.app) is a fairly popular tool in the Laravel space.

I just can't figure out how I'd use it in my regular workflow. Maybe for testing Eloquent queries on local?
