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 set up Inertia for a fresh Laravel application and then 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 and then walk through some nice additions like server-side rendering, starting with Tailwind, installing Ziggy for referencing named routes and much more.
00:31
To finish off the course, we'll set up a really simple comment app where we can post comments to a timeline just to bring everything nicely together. So let's head over to the first episode where we're going to get Inertia installed server-side in Laravel.

Episode summary

Welcome to the course! In this first episode, we'll introduce the idea of setting up Inertia.js in a fresh Laravel application. You might have seen packages like Laravel Breeze or Jetstream that come pre-configured with Inertia, but here, we'll guide you through doing it all from scratch, giving you full control and understanding.

Whether you're new to Inertia or just want to dig a bit deeper, we'll walk step-by-step through the process. We'll also check out some handy extras, like enabling server-side rendering, getting Tailwind CSS up and running for styles, installing Ziggy so we can reference named Laravel routes in our frontend, and more.

To wrap everything up, you'll get the chance to build a simple comments app—think posting comments to a timeline. It's a nice, practical way to put all these tools together. So, let's dive in and start by installing Inertia on the Laravel backend!
