About This Episode:

Welcome back to Laravel: The Pragmatic Way!

In this episode, we build on our Form Request workflow and focus on how Laravel handles validation errors — and how you can present them cleanly in your UI.

We walk through the full flow: triggering errors, displaying them, styling them, and customizing their messages.

🎯 What You’ll Learn
- How Laravel automatically redirects back with validation errors
- Displaying all errors at the top of the page
- Field-specific error messages using Blade directives
- Highlighting invalid fields for better UX
- Creating custom error messages inside your Form Request
- Updating question components to surface validation issues cleanly
