Modular Demo App

A demo application to illustrate some concepts of a Modular App.

The Demo App will provide you with examples of:

• The ACL (Access Control List) System.
• Some of the Custom Vue 3 Components, provided by Modular (Templates, Sidebar, Data Table, Form Components, Integrated Text Editor, Flash Messages, etc).
• How Laravel, Vue and Inertia.js communicate with each other.
• A possible way to organize the file structure of a Modular Project.
• Smooth transitions between pages.
• The GitHub repository for this demo app includes examples of workflows (GitHub Actions) to standardize the styles of the PHP files using Laravel Pint, and the Vue and JavaScript files using Prettier. There is also a workflow to handle tests. Feel free to check it out!
