Single-page applications are great, but they come with the challenge of maintaining two separate projects — the client and the API.
Inertia serves as the solution, seamlessly connecting these two components and enabling you to build everything in one application (a monolith) while achieving the same outcome. The best part? You won't have to create an API.
To be honest, when I first started working with Inertia, I was a little confused about how everything worked. If that sounds familiar, then this course is made for you. I'll guide you through everything you need to know to kickstart your journey in building single-page applications using Laravel, Inertia, and Vue.
The Laravel ecosystem gives us packages like Laravel Breeze and Jetstream which come ready set up with Inertia installed. But what if you want to install Inertia from scratch and build your own features on top of it? In this course, whether you're new to Inertia or not, we'll be covering getting Inertia set up on a completely fresh Laravel application. We'll walk through some nice additions like server side rendering, styling with Tailwind and installing Ziggy for named routes. To finish off the course, we'll build a simple app where we can post comments to a timeline, to bring everything nicely together!
Ready to build a forum with Inertia and Laravel? Why a forum? A forum touches a whole load of concepts that you'll use throughout your development career – particularly on the client-side, where we'll be doing most of the heavy lifting. So, let's build a clean, modern forum with features like markdown support, code highlighting, advanced filtering, user mentions, full-text search, the ability to mark best answers, and more.
Pagination is essential for almost every application. Let's take a look at an easy way to render pagination links when using Inertia with Laravel and Vue.
Flash notifications exist in almost every application. With Inertia, flashing notifications requires a bit more thought, and we're going to take this further and end up with a global notification plugin that just... works. By the end of the course, you'll have the ability to flash any type of notification, anywhere in your application, without repeating any code.
Ready to dive into Inertia? Let's build a real-world app with Laravel, Inertia and Vue! If you're already working with Inertia, you'll pick up some tips and techniques for future projects. This uptime monitor allows you to create and switch between sites, then add endpoints to monitor with frequency intervals. Using the power of scheduling and queues, it'll automatically alert the email addresses you've added via the UI when an endpoint goes down. In this course, you'll learn to: * Build a real app from scratch with Inertia * Work with Laravel queues * Perform actions on models at user-defined intervals * Work with sub-minute schedules in Laravel * Send out channel notifications with Laravel * Use API resources to simplify Inertia data * Organise apps with events and observers * Create modals in Vue * Perform inline editing with Inertia forms
