README

The Laces starter kit - an opinionated set of improvements to the official Laravel starter kit for Livewire.

Why?

Because I kept creating this at the start of every new project, so I decided to make it easier for mysql. If anyone else finds it useful, great :)

Features

This starter kit uses the official Livewire starter kit as a base, and improves it with the following strongly opinionated changes:

Enforces PHP strict_types throughout
Adds APP_TIMEZONE support to .env
Uses class-based Livewire by default
Enhances Pest testing setup
Sets strong password defaults
Removes GitHub workflows
Installs Flux UI Pro
Improve views to allow guests and replace static welcome page
Installs Duster (providing composer fix and composer lint)
Installs Prettier with Blade and Tailwind CSS support (providing npm run format)

Maintenance

The creation of this starter kit is now mostly automated by the laces-cli project.

Whenever a new Laravel or Livewire starter kit version is released, this starter kit will update automatically.

As with all starter kits, once you use it, the code is yours — you won’t be updating or maintaining anything further.

Installation

This starter kit is made to be used with the most recent Laravel version.

laravel new --using=legecha/laces

Requests

I'm happy to take pull requests for changes, but remember this is an opinionated starter kit. You are also welcome to send pull requests to the laces-cli tool to provide non-default options or customisations you may want for yourself, or to create your own starter packages.
