Vue.js 3 + Laravel 11 + Vite: SPA CRUD

Two Layouts: Authenticated and Guest

Next, let's move on to the authentication and authorization: in other words, login/register and permissions. In the first lesson of this section, we will create a separate layout for guests and authenticated users.

The guest layout will look similar to this:

login page with guest layout


First, for the authenticated users layout we will use the current layout we have now. Just rename it from resources/js/layouts/App.vue to resources/js/layouts/Authenticated.vue.

Next, let's create a guest layout.

resources/js/layouts/Guest.vue:

It's just a simple layout taken from the Laravel Breeze.

Now, we need to make changes in the main app.js. We don't have that App.vue which we used for the root component.

resources/js/app.js:

import './bootstrap';
 
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './layouts/App.vue'
 
import router from './routes/index'
import VueSweetalert2 from 'vue-sweetalert2';
 
createApp(App)
createApp({})
.use(router)
.use(VueSweetalert2)
.mount('#app')

We went back to the root component being empty so again in the Blade file we need to add <router-view>.

resources/views/dashboard.blade.php:

// ...
<body class="font-sans antialiased" id="app">
<router-view></router-view>
</body>
</html>

Finally, we need to change the routes into two groups: one for guests, and the other for authenticated users.

resources/js/routes/index.js:

import { createRouter, createWebHistory } from 'vue-router';
 
import AuthenticatedLayout from '@/layouts/Authenticated.vue';
import GuestLayout from '@/layouts/Guest.vue';
 
import PostsIndex from '@/components/Posts/Index.vue'
import PostsCreate from '@/components/Posts/Create.vue'
import PostsEdit from '@/components/Posts/Edit.vue'
import Login from '@/components/Auth/Login.vue';
 
const routes = [
{
component: GuestLayout,
children: [
{
path: '/login',
name: 'login',
component: Login
},
]
},
{
component: AuthenticatedLayout,
children: [
{
path: '/',
path: '/posts',
name: 'posts.index',
component: PostsIndex,
meta: { title: 'Posts' }
},
{
path: '/posts/create',
name: 'posts.create',
component: PostsCreate,
meta: { title: 'Add new post' }
},
{
path: '/posts/edit/:id',
name: 'posts.edit',
component: PostsEdit,
meta: { title: 'Edit post' }
},
]
}
]
 
export default createRouter({
history: createWebHistory(),
routes
})

Now let's create a Login Vue component with some dummy text, for now.

resources/js/components/Auth/Login.vue:

<template>
Login form.
</template>

If you visit your project /login page now, you should see a different layout.
