Laravel Breeze with Volt Functional API

The Laravel team released the Livewire + Volt functional stack for Breeze. This increases the Breeze offering to six stack variations, offering a tremendous amount of freedom to stacks that are emerging in the Laravel ecosystem:

Laravel Blade
Livewire with Volt Class API
Livewire with Volt Functional API
Inertia (React)
Inertia (Vue)
API-only

Getting Started with a New Project

If you want to install the Breeze + Volt functional API while creating a new Laravel project, all in one go, you can run the following:

laravel new --pest --breeze --git --dark \
  --stack=livewire-functional \
  breeze-functional-demo

Note: at the time of writing, the installer doesn't support livewire-functional unless you require dev-master. Likely, you can wait for the installer to get a release, or you can run

# Normal update once the release is created
composer global update laravel/installer -W
 
# For the impatient
composer global require laravel/installer:dev-master -W

If you prefer to install after-the-fact, you can run the following:

laravel new example-project
cd example-project
composer require laravel/breeze
php artisan breeze:install

Then you can follow the prompts to select the stack, include dark mode support, and pick the test suite (Pest or PHPUnit):
