When building modern web apps, teams often struggle to choose between a full SPA frontend or a traditional backend-driven stack. But what if you could have the best of both worlds?
Enter the Laravel + Inertia.js + Vue stack — a powerful combination that brings the richness of single-page applications (SPAs) without the complexity of building and managing a separate frontend.
Inertia.js is a modern routing and rendering engine that lets you build SPAs using classic server-side routing — no API layers, no client-side routers.
It allows you to use Vue.js, React, or Svelte as your frontend, while Laravel handles the backend logic, routing, authentication, and business logic.
“Think of Inertia as the glue between your Laravel controllers and your Vue components.”✅ 1. No API Layer Needed
Forget building a separate REST or GraphQL API. Your Laravel routes return Vue pages directly — just like Blade.
✅ 2. SSR-Like Simplicity, SPA-Like Speed
Your app loads like a single-page app with dynamic page transitions and no full reloads — but without managing complex client-side routing.
✅ 3. Full Power of Laravel
You keep using everything Laravel offers — middleware, validation, Eloquent, auth, policies — without adapting it for an API.
✅ 4. Vue 3 + Composition API
Pairing Inertia with Vue 3 means you can build highly modular, reactive, and maintainable frontend components using the Composition API.
✅ 5. Built-In SEO & Performance
Because Laravel handles routing and rendering, you can more easily handle things like meta tags, SEO controls, and lazy-loading assets.
return Inertia::render('Dashboard', [
'user' => Auth::user(),
]);<template>
<h1>Welcome, {{ user.name }}</h1>
</template>
<script setup>
defineProps({ user: Object })
</script>Routing, reactivity, and page transitions are handled automatically.
