Just curious what is the issue with No hint path defined for [ide-helper] ??

This is caused by the way this plugin uses ide-helper. The quick fix is to pass a read instance of View Factory to the Barryvdh\LaravelIdeHelper\Console\GeneratorCommand:

        $stubs_generator_command = new GeneratorCommand(
            $config,
            $fake_filesystem,
-           ViewFactoryProvider::get(),
+           $app->make('view')
        );

But there are some more issues, also caused by ide-helper. The goal of this PR is to fix all of them and then ideally drop ide-helper dependency entirely, as it produces a lot of issues like this (mostly because it's not created in a way this plugin uses it and constantly creates BC changes). I need more time to finish this work, with some cache I'll finish it this (first step) weekend.

@alies-dev checkin to see how its going and if I'd be able to help. I tried to pull in your branch but psalm crashes with "event loop is already running"

Hey @tm1000

Thanks for checking in! Your interest actually helps validate that this plugin is still relevant to the community. I've been wondering about its place given Larastan's inclusion in Laravel's default stack.

I'm planning to spend some time on the plugin this weekend. If you're interested in contributing, I'll share some easy-wins we can solve together. WDYT?

Having active contributors would definitely help maintain momentum on this project. 🤍
