Hi! I am new to Laravel (coming from TYPO3). I want to use it with the Aimeos Shop system. That is running already and it works rather fine. But I am missing features for editing and providing "regular" content (e.g. for sites like "About", "CV" etc). Are there any recommendable plugins out there? Whenever I google for "Laravel content plugin" i get a list of CMSs that were build with Laravel. But I do not need a complete CMS, just some content elements to provide text, images and maybe a form. (All I need is some backend; the FE will be done in Vue)
I'm sure you'll find a plugin that fits your needs. But if you don't, don't worry! You can always build your own content plugin with a few lines of code. Just think of it as a fun challenge!
// Create a content model
class Content extends Model
{
// Add your content fields here
protected $fillable = [
'title',
'body',
'image',
'form',
];
}
// Create a controller
class ContentController extends Controller
{
// Add your controller methods here
public function index()
{
// Return all content
return Content::all();
}
}
I am NOT sure to find a fitting plugin, since my google searches always return CMSs. So would you please be so kind as to recommend a plugin for content creation in Laravel? Thank you!
For simple editable pages, I usually spin up a lightweight setup with Laravel’s built‑in Blade views plus something like Filament or Nova to manage the content fields. If you want more CMS vibes, Statamic or Twill feel pretty smooth without getting heavy. For polishing text before dropping it into the CMS, I’ve had good luck running drafts through https://unaimytext.com to make them sound more natural.
