Laravel Nova conditional fields on form

I'm creating a form for one of my resources using Nova. Some of the fields have conditional relationships to one another.

For example if "is trial" is chosen we must specify a value for "trial end date", but there's no point showing the date field on the page if "is trial" isn't picked. Another example, fields A and B are mutually exclusive.

All of these can easily be enforced with conditional validators in the backend, and I know how to do that. I'm just trying to make an interface that's not confusing.

How can I customize the frontend JS forms for this resource?

I don't think there is any support for this at this point. You will either have to create your own resource tool or just add a help text to your fields that explains what's going on and do the validation in the backend as you said.

Text::make('Trial Date')->help('Only required if is trial is selected')

Currently, Nova v4 provides dependsOn method, where you can easily write what you need. https://nova.laravel.com/docs/4.0/resources/fields.html#dependent-fields
