Installation

#Requirements

• PHP 8.4 or newer
• Laravel 13
• Inertia 3 with Vue 3.5
• Tailwind CSS 4

Xelqun Tables also needs PHP's intl extension.

Start from an app that already has Inertia and Vue. Laravel's Vue starter kit is the quickest way.

#Installing a panel

Panels is built on Forms and Tables, and its installer sets up all three.

composer require xelqun/panels
php artisan xelqun-panels:install
php artisan make:xelqun-panel Admin

The installer adds the npm packages, connects them to your Inertia entry file, and adds the styles. The new panel has a login page and a dashboard at /admin.

Then add PanelUser to your user model. Nobody can sign in until you do.

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Xelqun\Panels\Contracts\PanelUser;
use Xelqun\Panels\Panel;

class User extends Authenticatable implements PanelUser
{
    public function canAccessPanel(Panel $panel): bool
    {
        return $this->is_admin;
    }
}

#Installing forms

For forms on your own Inertia pages:

composer require xelqun/forms
php artisan xelqun-forms:install

#Installing tables

For tables on your own Inertia pages. Forms comes with it.

composer require xelqun/tables
php artisan xelqun-tables:install

#Rebuild your frontend

Whichever you chose, rebuild your assets.

npm run build

Next, build your first panel.
