Practical Vue Components

As you continue building new projects, you'll find yourself reaching for the same crop of components over and over again. Most websites require modals, dropdowns, tooltips, and more. While you can certainly use a UI framework, let's instead learn how to construct these components (and more) from scratch.

  1. Episodes (7)

    1. Smooth Scrolling

      So the user clicks a link, and the page smoothly scrolls to your desired section. It's a common enough need. Let's wrap this functionality in a reusable Vue component, called ScrollLink.

    2. Context Menus

      Next up, we'll create a typical context menu that can be referenced anywhere on your site. You've surely seen these on countless sites, including Facebook and Twitter.

    3. Show an Element When Another is Hidden

      A common need is to display a block of HTML only when another block is hidden from the viewport. In fact, this technique is used in a number of places around the Laracasts website. You'll be happy to hear that it's quite easy to accomplish.

    5. Confirmation Dialogs and Buttons

      Next up on the agenda is flexible confirmation buttons and dialogs. Among other things, this will offer us a chance to review event dispatchers and promises.

    6. Inline SVGs Using Render Functions

      Our next practical Vue component offers us an easy way to dynamically load and tweak inline SVGs on the fly.

    7. Tabs

      Next up, we have the common tabs Vue component. There are a hundred and one different ways to construct these, but let's review one path you might consider.

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!
