- Almost half of you create adminpanels from scratch for every new project. Guys, seriously?!
- Another quarter are copy-pasting the old projects code to a new one. A little more effective.
- I'm surprised how few people actually use external packages for that - there are quite a few on the market.
- laravel-boilerplate
- Metronic theme
- We built an AdminLte generador in a base project, similar to LaraCogs.
- We have a template package wish we install every time so our providers and auth + design are setup the rest we fill in per project.
- October CMS
- Releasing my own Laravel admin
- Adminer
- OctoberCMS
- "Last project we did was a bootstrap theme with all the styled needed for an admin panel and laravel"
Additional comments from respondents
I kinda lied about only one question - there was an additional optional one, just as a free-form field with a question: "Any additional comments on the admin area building process? What package/service/tool would make this process easier?" Let's see what we've got here - 22 out of 100 actually responded, quite a lot! Will mention some of them here:- I am new to Laravel but was wondering if we have that admin package with proper ACL (at least couple of roles and users with resources that they can access). It would obviously be nice if routing is managed too.
- Most of my projects have a base admin area (login, registration, password recovery, invitation, profile, etc) and, from this I build new menu items accordingly to the project. Laravel really makes it easy to build CRUD like admin panels and, as of now, I didn't feel the need for something external
- Now I have been using QuickAdmin. I use it in various ways depending on the project. 1) as a full admin 2) as a quick setup tool, after which I start to modify it personally 3) as a proof of concept, to show client in a day or two what it might look like, the data relationships that will exist, reporting that can be done, then custom build it to their needs After building and moving several projects, I finally realized its actually easier than I originally thought to move. I manually copy those parts, but, if there was an "export seed" link, to export changes to roles, menus and menu_role it would let yu move site easily... especially since quickadmin:install runs all migrations needed I tried also the infyom package. It was nice. But, I came back to yours rather quickly. I do however like they also have option of creating the API code automatically, since so many apps are api based these days too. But, then again, in my latest quickadmin app, I built it using your tools, and the API was not time consuming at all, because everything I needed was there already.
- sleepingowl admin
- I would love a tool that would allow for generation of a project in a saas environment. Let it do all the repetitive work and let me do just the customizing.
- I use adminlte for the styles/layout and vuejs for the JS.
- What I usually dont like about admin packages is that they're usually bloated with Js. I may pay for a very simple admin panel with basic features.
- Laravelhackathon package is pretty great for quickly getting started. I use that plus my own set of views for a pretty slick admin every single project
- A stand alone package with roles and permissions would be enough. Something like backend WP or Drupal.
- I use Smartadmin or Material admin from wrapbootstrap. Both allow me to hit the ground running with just a tad pjax to add.
- I use the FrozenNode/Laravel-Administrator package; sadly it seems not maintained now. Another one, cruddy/cruddy exists, but (imho) is less user-oriented. I do not know if QuickAdmin can be used for my needs: I don't find the information in the documentation: can it automatically manage 'foreign key' fields? (one to many, many to many). Do you have more detailed documentation on this subject?
- We have a loooot of data to show so we need something fast to load all this data. We use jquery datables loading the data paginated
- scaffolding crud views from models or repository pattern
- I've been looking into laravel admin panels recently because my pain points are usually teams and user roles / permissions. I'm excited about the development of QuickAdmin!
