Listing reviews

<x-areviews-areviews:reviews ..... />: This component will be useful to show the list of reviews. You can list your own reviews or default latest reviews with or without pagination. Default display style will be masonry using bootstrap rows and columns. You can further customize this component after publishing the assets. There are some arguments with this component which may help you in achieving your desired format:

reviews: Pass the collection of reviews which you have already digged out from the database. Only these reviews will be shown in the list.
model: Pass the model instance for which you want to get the reviews. Note: Please check if you have already used ReviewModelTrait trait to the model. You will only see the reviews of the model when first reviews argument is not passed or is empty.
limit: This argument will limit the reviews which we got from reviews or model argument. This will also act as count of per page in case of pagination . Default limit value is 10.
column: Use the column classes to control the number of columns in listing. Default value is col-lg-4 col-md-6. It will show 3 columns on large screen, 2 in medium screen and single column in small or mobile devices. You can pass your own column classes to control the columns. You can also define it globally in config file.
