Infinite Scrolling in Inertia

If you've used any form of social media, you'll know that they make heavy use of infinite scrolling. When you reach the end of the page, more content is automatically streamed in. Typically, this tends to be handled via a REST API, but Inertia is all about avoiding REST APIs! So, let's implement the same functionality the Inertia way.

    1. Square One: Simple Inertia Pagination

      An infinite page of content starts the same way as any other page of content: with pagination! Let's implement basic pagination in Inertia on a typical comments page.

    2. From Props to Refs

      In order to support infinite scrolling, we need to keep track of all previous pages of comments, and append any new comments to our list dynamically. This presents a perfect use case for reactivity. Let's make the switch.

    3. It's Not Slick to Have to Click

      Ideally, we shouldn't have to click a button to load more content; that's not much better than standard pagination. Instead, let's make use of a little gem JavaScript provides called the IntersectionObserver to automatically load in the next page of content.

    4. Make it Reusable

      While our current code works, we don't want to write this out every time we want to implement infinite scrolling. Thankfully, Vue allows us to build composables, or reusable snippets of state-aware code. Let's refactor to a composable to finish off this series.

Blaze Deep-Dive thumbnail

Blaze Deep-Dive

With Caleb Porzio

Blade components are slow. Really slow. At scale, they quietly become the biggest bottleneck in your Laravel application. We discovered this while trying to make Flux as fast as possible, and the result is Blaze: a package that fundamentally rethinks how Blade components are compiled and rendered. With multiple levels of optimization, Blaze can shave hundreds of milliseconds off a page load, making Blade rendering up to 25x faster in some cases.In this series, we'll install it, benchmark it, build a toy version from scratch so you truly understand how it works, and then master every directive and edge case so you can squeeze maximum performance out of your own apps.

Customizing Filament For User-Facing Apps

With Shruti Balasa

In this series, we'll build a real, user-facing app called Booknest using Laravel and Filament. We'll begin with a fresh install and begin pushing Filament beyond the usual "internal admin only" setup that you typically see. It's capable of so much more.

Filament 5 in Depth

With Kevin McKee

Filament's powers have increased exponentially. Now at version 5, it's more powerful and capable than ever. In this series, we'll build a practical Roadmap app from scratch, using Filament for the admin panel and Livewire for the public-facing side.Along the way, we'll cover panel configuration, enum-driven UI, strict authorization with policies, and newer form inputs like ToggleButtons, Sliders, and the TipTap-powered RichEditor. By the end, you'll have a full-featured app and a solid handle on everything new in Filament.

Build Native Apps With PHP thumbnail

Build Native Apps With PHP

With Simon Hamp

Welcome to my CreatorSeries! I’m Simon, and in this series we’re going to learn about NativePHP and use it to build true native applications for desktop and mobile. We're not talking about web apps accessed through the browser. Your users will be able to install directly on their devices. This is a big leap forward for the PHP ecosystem, and while it’s a real paradigm shift from the way we normally build with PHP and Laravel, we’ve worked hard to keep it familiar and approachable. So grab a warm drink, get comfortable, and let's start building!

Everything New in Livewire 4

With Caleb Porzio

Livewire 4 is a major release, and it's packed with features you're going to love. View-based components keep your PHP and Blade together in one file. Islands let you create isolated, independently-updating regions without the overhead of nested components. New directives like wire:sort tackle big things with minimal code. And a powerful JavaScript interceptor system gives you fine-grained control over every request.Whether you're upgrading an existing app or starting fresh, this series will walk you through everything new, from the fundamentals to the advanced stuff. Let's dig in.
