Laravel Svelte Demo

Laravel-Svelte Demo

Simple Contact CRUD web-app and REST-API. This demo show how I structured Laravel project using InertiaJs(Svelte) and Laravel Action.

I have strict rules of using and implementing Action or maybe a bit radical:

Action API only used for internal implementation and never exposed to the public e.g., AsController trait
Action API must have an argument length of at most three, more than that you can utilize array, Collection or custom class
Action API should never throw errors and handled internally, instead we return error as a part of the return value
Action API should return a fixed array that contain various values, usually error at index 0 and result at index 1, the order is not matter and you may add another value for specific use cases, mostly these two are more than enough. It's like returning a tuple in other languages or multiple values in Go

This demo using unofficial @westacks/inertia-svelte adapter, because the official one has a lot of issues
