    {
        $validated = $reqeust->validate([
            'name' => 'required',
            'email' => 'required',
            'password' => 'required'
        ]);
        if ($validated) {
            Dealer::create($validated);
            return redirect()->route('dealers');
        }

The error message suggests that there is an issue with resolving the component for the page. One possible solution is to use the Inertia::location() method to redirect instead of the Laravel redirect() method. Here's an example:

public function create(Request $request)
{
    $validated = $request->validate([
        'name' => 'required',
        'email' => 'required',
        'password' => 'required'
    ]);

    if ($validated) {
        Dealer::create($validated);
        return Inertia::location(route('dealers'));
    }

    return redirect()->back();
}

This should redirect the user to the dealers page after creating a new dealer record. Make sure to import the Inertia facade at the top of your controller:

use Inertia\Inertia;

If this solution doesn't work, it's possible that there is an issue with your Vue components or router configuration.

I've got the same error when following Inertia Forms 101, return redirect('/users'); gives the error, along with return redirect()->back(); inertia docs say to use return to_route('users'); which also gives the error. Currently I'm using return Inertia::location(route('users')); which I don't feel is correct. If anyone can shed some light on this it would be great. Thanks
