Clarification: by SPA I mean consuming an api using fetch/axios directly rather than passing props via inertia.
Inertia saves you a ton of work and managing frontend state and would be my personal goto. But as mentioned there are valid use cases for spa too

Exactly. And note the distinction between SPA and inertia here. Inertia is also great for interactive UI, but if your application doesn’t really follow typical CRUD, there *could* be scenarios where SPA gives you more control.

It sounds to me like VILT is a great choice for your app 😊

Vue is my personal favorite (much better than React imho), but React has the ecosystem which is a big one. Tailwind headlessui and maybe upcoming webcomponents are big wins for the Vue ecosystem.

SPA: Only makes sense if you are building APis upfront for mobile apps anyway or very interactive uis

from legacy app (!). Love the no build step. Filament ❤️. For interactive heavy ui you sometimes have to get a bit creative, where vue/react were born to do this.

Inertia: Easiest way to do full js frontend in laravel. Great for application ui’s. Apps like laravel forge, cloud, nightwatch use it.

I’ve tried every laravel stack combination imaginable. They each have things they excel at and all of them are good options. Some might be better fit for you / your project than others.

In my experience:

- Livewire / flux: wonderful for public websites and plays well with SEO. Easy migration path

I feel this. After having worked with both, I really just vibe more with Vue. It suits my brain better and doesn’t get in my way as much.
Although, I do sometimes miss having certain packages available. Most recently this 👀: silkhq.co

Pretty sure chrome is shipping this soon! I’ve seen it advertised in the console log recently

Wuhu, awesome! Look forward to seeing you there 🙌

Kudos @joshhanley.au - you and @calebporzio.bsky.social are doing amazing work 🎉 ❤️

😂

Joe you need to work on your posture

TIL. Pretty cool 👏

+1 for OrbStack. Plug n play replacement, and MUCH better performance

🤣

Haha absolutely! The launch timing was impeccable for me as I'm redoing a 12 yo vanilla php website.
Wrapped in Laravel and re-implementing screens with flux one by one. Such a timesaver!

Oh man flux is so good. Using it quite a bit these days, and getting better everyday

Love this.

Nice! 🤩 Now, be honest. Is it a Lambo?
