Laravel Livewire

Description



Building modern web apps is hard. Tools like Vue and React are extremely powerful, but the complexity they add to a full-stack developer’s workflow is insane.

It doesn’t have to be this way…



Ok, I’m listening…



Say hello to Livewire.



Hi Livewire!



Livewire is a full-stack framework for Laravel that makes building dynamic interfaces simple, without leaving the comfort of Laravel.



Consider my interest piqued



It’s not like anything you’ve seen before. The best way to understand it is to just look at the code. Strap on your snorkel, we’re diving in.

How the he*k does this work?



   Livewire renders the initial component output with the page (like a Blade include). This way, it’s SEO friendly.

   When an interaction occurs, Livewire makes an AJAX request to the server with the updated data.

   The server re-renders the component and responds with the new HTML.

   Livewire then intelligently mutates DOM according to the things that changed.
