Not sure if "shortcut" isn't the more common version 🤔 but I'm not a native speaker, so 🤷🏻‍♂️

In dusk docs we used both shortcuts and short-cuts, so I will open a PR to unify that across the docks.

Thank you for this.


```php
class Transformer1
{
public static function transform(string $name): string
{
return strtoupper($name);
}
}

class Transformer2
{
public static function transform(string $name): string
{
return strtolower($name);
}
}

$transformers = collect([Transformer1::class, Transformer2::class]);

$results = $transformers->map->transform('taylor');

$results->dd();

// array:2 [
// 0 => "TAYLOR"
// 1 => "taylor"
// ]
```
