What I did:
Massive architectural and security overhaul today. I completely rewrote the form submission logic to follow the Post-Redirect-Get (PRG) pattern, integrating session-based Flash messages and strict CSRF token validation across all endpoints. I also implemented “Sticky Forms” so users never lose their detailed text inputs if a validation error occurs. For the administration side, I built full CRUD interfaces to manage personnel roles, corporate clients, and the equipment registry without needing direct database access. Finally, I wrote SQL-level pagination for the main tickets table to keep the application fast and scalable as data grows.

The struggles:
I finally switched from VS Code to PhpStorm today and I am just in shock at how insanely cool and powerful it is. It instantly highlighted database schema mismatches I missed and forced me to write much cleaner code, though getting used to its strict warnings definitely took some time.
