Introducing a Flexible Laravel Livewire Modal Package

Laravel and Livewire have revolutionized the way we build dynamic applications with minimal JavaScript. But when it comes to handling modals, most solutions tend to lock us into specific design frameworks like Bootstrap or Tailwind CSS. What if you need the flexibility to choose your design system? That’s where my newly released Laravel Livewire Modal package comes in!

🚀 What Is This Package?

The Laravel Livewire Modal package is a framework-agnostic solution for handling modals in your Livewire projects. It’s designed to work seamlessly with Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS, or any custom styles. Whether you’re working on a brand new project or integrating into an existing one, this package adapts to your needs.

✨ Key Features

• Framework-Agnostic: Use with Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS, or your own custom styles.
• Easy Integration: Simple Livewire events to open and close modals.
• Dynamic Data Handling: Pass data effortlessly to your modal components.
• Customizable and Lightweight: No enforced styles, allowing you to maintain full control over your design.

🛠️ Installation & Setup

You can get started by installing the package via Composer:

composer require sagor110090/livewire-modal

Next, add the following line to your app.blade.php layout file to enable modals throughout your application:

<livewire:modals/>

Also, don’t forget to include the required JS and CSS in your resources/js/app.js:

import '../../vendor/sagor110090/livewire-modal/resources/js/loader.js';
import '../../vendor/sagor110090/livewire-modal/resources/css/loader.css';

📦 Usage Example

Here’s how easy it is to open and close modals using this package:

Opening a Modal

<button wire:click="$dispatch('openModal', { component: 'edit-user', data: { id: {{ $user->id }} } })">
    Open Modal
</button>

Closing a Modal

<button type="button" wire:click="$dispatch('closeModal')">
    Cancel
</button>

Creating a Livewire Component

To get you started, here’s a sample Livewire component for editing a user:

<?php

namespace App\Livewire;

use App\Models\User;
use Livewire\Component;

class EditUser extends Component
{
    public $user;

    public function mount($id)
    {
        $this->user = User::find($id);
    }

    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.edit-user');
    }
}

Customizing Your Modal Design

This package is completely design-agnostic, meaning you can use any framework to style your modals. For example, if you’re using Tailwind CSS:

<div class="fixed inset-0 flex items-center justify-center bg-gray-900 bg-opacity-50">
    <div class="bg-white rounded-lg shadow-lg p-6">
        <!-- Your Modal Content -->
    </div>
</div>

Feel free to replace the styling with Bootstrap, custom CSS, or whatever design system you prefer.

💡 Why Use This Package?

Most modal solutions are tied to specific design frameworks, limiting your flexibility. This package gives you full control over how you style your modals while providing seamless integration with Livewire’s powerful components.

Whether you’re building a large application or a simple project, this package is designed to be lightweight, flexible, and easy to use.
