Instead of modifying Blade templates to change navigation items, the sidebar is now fully controlled from a configuration file. This makes the menu: - Easily customizable - Role/permission aware - Environment flexible - Cleanly separated from UI logic - Safe during framework updates --- ✨ Features ---------- [](#-features) - Grouped navigation items - Internal route support - External link support - Flux icon support - FontAwesome icon support - Permission-based visibility - Theme toggle integration - Fully compatible with Livewire navigation (`wire:navigate`) - Compatible with the latest Flux sidebar structure --- 📂 Configuration --------------- [](#-configuration) Sidebar items are defined in: ``` config/ui.php ``` Example: ``` return [ 'theme_toggle' => true, 'driver' => 'auto', 'sidebar' => [ [ 'type' => 'group', 'text' => 'Platform', 'items' => [ [ 'text' => 'Dashboard', 'url' => 'dashboard', 'icon' => 'home', 'permission' => null, ], ], ], ], ]; ``` --- 🧩 Menu Item Structure --------------------- [](#-menu-item-structure) ### Required Fields [](#required-fields) - `text` — Display label - `url` — Route name, full URL, or path - `icon` — Flux icon or FontAwesome class ### Optional Fields [](#optional-fields) - `type` — `group` or `link` - `permission` — Permission string (based on configured driver) - `target` — For external links (e.g. `_blank`) --- 🎨 Icon Support -------------- [](#-icon-support) ### Flux Icons [](#flux-icons) If the icon does **not** start with: ``` fa fas far fa- ``` It will be treated as a Flux icon. Example: ``` 'icon' => 'home', ``` --- ### FontAwesome Icons [](#fontawesome-icons) Use full class names: ``` 'icon' => 'fas fa-users', ``` --- 🔐 Permission Support -------------------- [](#-permission-support) Visibility is controlled by the configured driver: ``` 'driver' => 'auto', ``` Supported drivers: - auto - laratrust - spatie - gate If `permission` is `null`, the item is always visible. --- 🔗 URL Handling -------------- [](#-url-handling) The system automatically detects: ### Route Names [](#route-names) If the value does not start with: - `http://` - `https://` - `/` - `#` It will attempt to resolve it using Laravel's `route()` helper. Example: ``` 'url' => 'dashboard', ``` --- ### External Links [](#external-links) ``` 'url' => 'https://laravel.com', ``` These are rendered as external links. --- ### Raw Paths [](#raw-paths) ``` 'url' => '/custom-page', ``` Used directly without route resolution. --- 🌙 Theme Toggle -------------- [](#-theme-toggle) Theme toggle can be enabled or disabled: ``` 'theme_toggle' => true, ``` It integrates with Flux dark mode. --- 🚀 Benefits ---------- [](#-benefits) This approach: - Removes hardcoded navigation from Blade - Centralizes menu management in configuration - Supports role-based access control - Makes upgrades safer - Improves maintainability - Keeps UI clean and reusable --- 📌 Compatibility --------------- [](#-compatibility) Designed for: - Laravel > 12.0 - Livewire > 3.5 - Flux UI > 2.0 - Livewire Starter Kit --- Summary ------- [](#summary) The Config-Driven Sidebar Menu transforms navigation into a fully configurable system, improving scalability, maintainability, and upgrade safety. Laravel + Livewire Starter Kit ============================== [](#laravel--livewire-starter-kit) Introduction ------------ [](#introduction) Our Laravel + [Livewire](https://livewire.laravel.com) starter kit provides a robust, modern starting point for building Laravel applications with a Livewire frontend.

It's a great fit for teams that primarily use Blade templates and are looking for a simpler alternative to JavaScript-driven SPA frameworks like React and Vue. This Livewire starter kit utilizes Livewire 4, TypeScript, Tailwind, and the [Flux UI](https://fluxui.dev) component library.
