Diana Scharf
Full-stack Developer @ Beyond Code
About Diana
Diana Scharf, known as “Di” in the Laravel community, is a Fullstack Developer at Beyond Code, where she works on tools like Laravel Herd, Tinkerwell, and Polyscope - products thousands of developers rely on every day.
She’s a passionate conference speaker with appearances at multiple Laracons and PHP events worldwide. Her talks range from building seamless fullstack apps with Inertia.js and Laravel to demystifying word embeddings and RAG patterns - always practical, never boring. As a board member of Larabelles, she’s committed to making the PHP and Laravel community more accessible and inclusive for underrepresented developers.
Beyond coding, she can be found on her road bike, taking long walks with her dog, talking to her plant children, and working through a towering reading list.
