Hello,
is it better to learn only laravel and upgrade later to livewire and tailwindcss or does it make more sense, when i start with laravel jetstream from the scratch?
i have only basic skills in html, php and mysql.
@neomuckel I would recommend you get familiar with laravel first before worrying about laravel + livewire.
if you are new to the framework, before you do anything, watch the laravel from scratch series:
by all means use Laravel's auth system, and doing so will save you a whole load of pain.
for livewire, follow documentation on http://laravel-livewire.com and also watch the Livewire-basics series
@automica I think you mentioned the wrong person, good advices though.
@automica thanks, yes im watching the laravel from the scratch series and at the same time, i try to use this knowledge on my project. My project what i want to realise is a CRM and Work and appointment planning for my plumber business. i watched some youtube videos about laravel and livewire and when i understood it right, then i need these two things to develop this project.
im very thankful for every help i get, thanks
I don't understand the question. Jetstream can scaffold stacks, but it also scaffolds Auth. So using laravel with built in authentication has nothing to do with jetstream.
I scaffolded Auth with jetstream, but I use fetch js, bootstrap, regular css, plain JS, and blade.
It's your choice what stacks you use after an install. Many here use jquery.
If you want to learn livewire, then install that stack. I tried it, but choose to stick with fetch js.
As a beginner too, I think you have to try both except ig you always want to setup project with Auth since Jetstrean is the 'standard' way of do it in L8.
