In general HTML, an empty form input is an empty string; Laravel then trims and normalizes inbound Request payloads.
So use either, just be consistent within your own codebase.

Null or empty strings for form defintiions?
The inertia examples show form inputs a empty strings:
const form = useForm({
name: '',
....
Laravel starter kits user null:
const form = useForm({
name: null,
....
When data is not defined in my backend, for optional fields null is returned. So, I when populating a form in edit mode, if I use this data directly it will have a null value.
What is best practice here when defining vars in inertia/vue? Null or empty strings?
