Flux 2.0 Livewire UI Kit

I might be late to the party, but I wanted to share all of the cool new components released in Flux 2.0, the official Livewire component library by Caleb Porzio. Flux 2.0 brings advanced components like date pickers, calendars, charts, and more. These components are built lean and dependency-free by the creator of Livewire:

Keeping Flux lightweight was a top priority. Instead of pulling in third-party date pickers and charts, we built our own from the ground up—resulting in only 13kb added to the bundle.

Why go through all that trouble for a few extra kilobytes?

While exploring third-party charting and date picker libraries, we kept running into the following:

  • Too much complex configuration
  • Difficulty styling to match our designs
  • Lack of accessibility & localization

With that, we decided to roll up our sleeves and build it all ourselves. And we're glad we did, because now we have the exact components we want for our use cases and nothing more. On top of that, when we encounter things we'd like added or modified in the future, we can just make it happen. No plugins, no pull requests, just changing our own code.

As part of the Flux 2.0 release, the Flux UI has a free tier of essential UI components that are used in the official Laravel Livewire starter kit. Using the Laravel starter kit will give you a taste of using Flux UI with Livewire and Laravel, and the premium version will give you advanced UI components to build UIs with Livewire. Flux 2.0 premium has per-project, unlimited, and business options for purchase.
