Foreword
Laravel is a fascinating framework, huge and with a somewhat steep learning curve and with multiple options; this book is not for beginners and assumes that you already know how to program in Laravel.
Laravel Inertia takes Laravel development one step further; automating routine processes in very flexible schemes based on components, the components in Vue, which come to replace Laravel's blade views and with them, we can communicate client and server in a very simple, efficient and easy way.
Laravel Inertia is not a framework, it is just a layer or scaffolding that adds certain extra features to the framework that we can use to create great applications, with less effort and development time.
