README

By default, every link click in Laravel loads a full new page — HTML, CSS, JS, fonts, everything re-downloads. SPA navigation skips that. Only the content changes, the rest stays. Faster, smoother, no white flash between pages.

Most Laravel SPA solutions force you to either abandon Blade entirely (Inertia) or add jQuery (pjax). This package adds that same speed on top of your existing Blade views — no rewrite, nothing changes except how fast it feels.

Quick Start

composer require saakiiib/laravel-spa
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=spa-assets

Add /public/vendor to your .gitignore to avoid committing published assets.

Setup — @extends / @section

1. Layout file

Add @spaContent to your content wrapper and @spaEngine before </body>. Make sure @yield('script') comes after @spaEngine.

<main @spaContent>
    @yield('content')
</main>

@spaEngine
@yield('script')

2. Navigation links

Add @spa to links you want SPA navigation on. Links without @spa do a normal full reload.

<a href="{{ route('home') }}" @spa>Home</a>
<a href="{{ route('about') }}" @spa>About</a>
<a href="{{ route('logout') }}">Logout</a>

3. Controller

public function home()
{
    return spa('pages.home');
}

public function about()
{
    return spa('pages.about', compact('data'));
}

4. Page views — no changes needed

@extends('layouts.app')

@section('title', 'Home')

@section('style')
    <style>
        .hero { background: #1a3c6e; color: #fff; padding: 60px; }
    </style>
@endsection

@section('content')
    <div class="hero">
        <h1>Welcome</h1>
    </div>
@endsection

@section('script')
    <script>
        console.log('page loaded');
    </script>
@endsection

Setup — x-layout components

1. Layout component

Add @spaContent to your content wrapper and @spaEngine before </body>.

<head>
    <style>
        /* global styles */
    </style>

    {{ $style ?? '' }}
</head>
<body>
    <main @spaContent>
        {{ $slot }}
    </main>

    <script>
        /* global scripts */
    </script>

    @spaEngine
    {{ $script ?? '' }}
</body>

2. Navigation links — same as above, add @spa:

<a href="{{ route('home') }}" @spa>Home</a>
<a href="{{ route('logout') }}">Logout</a>

3. Controller — same as above:

public function home()
{
    return spa('pages.home');
}

4. Page views

<x-app-layout title="Home">

    <x-slot:style>
        <style>
            .hero { background: #1a3c6e; color: #fff; padding: 60px; }
        </style>
    </x-slot:style>

    <div class="hero">
        <h1>Welcome</h1>
    </div>

    <x-slot:script>
        <script>
            console.log('page loaded');
        </script>
    </x-slot:script>

</x-app-layout>

What works out of the box

  • URL updates, back/forward button, refresh, direct links — all work
  • Per-page styles and scripts load and unload on every navigation
  • Session expiry redirects cleanly instead of breaking
  • Hover prefetch — pages start loading before you even click
  • Works with both @extends and x-layout

Requirements

  • PHP 8.1+
  • Laravel 10, 11, or 12
