Use Inertia.js like a boss
Published on by Eric L. Barnes
The book Advanced Inertia is the best way to learn how to build complex Inertia-powered apps that are easy to maintain for years to come. Even if you know the basics of Inertia.js, the course contains advanced patterns to sharpen your full-stack development skills.
Advanced Inertia
When writing pure Laravel code, you have many built-in out-of-box features, such as routes, localization, permissions, and stuff. With proper IDE, third-party extensions, and tools, you are granted the best developer experience on the market, including type checking, static analysis, syntax highlighting, and auto-completion.
But the most important thing — you have consistency. If you do things “right,” you always know what data you have to deal with, what shape it has, and what results to expect.
Youʼre missing a huge opportunity with an “external” JavaScript-based frontend, whether itʼs an Inertia-powered or API-based app. More than that, even though Laravel has the first-class support of several frontend frameworks, and such solutions as Vue and React are widely adopted within the community, there are still no general conventions on how to do things the “right way.”
The book Advanced Inertia is going to guide you through building a connecting layer between Laravel and Inertia-powered frontend to make monolith applications a breeze to develop and maintain and bring back the feeling of working on a single codebase.
