Some of the major features available in this new version of Ignition include:
- Default error page for Laravel 9
- Use the next version of Ignition in Laravel 8
- Framework-agnostic Ignition package for PHP projects
- Light, Dark, and auto themes
- Save settings from the error page to the
~/.ignition.jsonfile - Sticky error message always stays displayed
- Customizable "open in editor" to open in your preferred editor
- Collect
dump()calls and displays them in a separate tab - Show queries made during the request with query timings
- Sharing options for Flare
Not only is Ignition ready for the next generation of Laravel applications, but a framework-agnostic PHP version is also available as well at spatie/ignition. The framework-agnostic version also supports solutions, using the ProvidesSolution interface. It will be interesting to see if this package gains traction in other areas of the PHP ecosystem.
