Course Description
Learn Laravel 13 and Vue 3 by building two complete, production-ready full-stack applications — one powered by a REST API, one powered by Inertia.js — then test and deploy them to a live server.
Most tutorials leave you stranded. You finish the video, close the editor, and still have no idea how to build something real on your own. This course is the opposite. From the first lesson, you are writing code that ends up in a finished, deployable application you can show to employers and clients.
What makes this course different
Almost every Laravel + Vue course teaches you one way to connect the two. That leaves a gap in your skillset, because real companies use both approaches. Here you master both architectures, so you can walk into any team and be productive on day one.
The 2 projects you'll build from scratch
Project 1 — API-Based Full Stack Application (styled with Bootstrap 5)
Build a decoupled Laravel 13 REST API handling authentication (Sanctum), validation, database relationships, and resource responses. Then connect it to a completely separate Vue 3 frontend with Vue Router, Pinia state management, and Axios. This is the architecture used by companies running mobile apps and web apps on a single backend.
Project 2 — Monolith SPA with Inertia.js (styled with Tailwind CSS)
Discover why Inertia.js is the fastest-growing way to build Laravel SPAs. You'll get the smooth, no-reload feel of a single page application while keeping Laravel's routing, validation, and authentication — with zero API boilerplate. Ship features in half the time.
What you'll master
Laravel 13 — Eloquent ORM, migrations, Form Requests, middleware, policies, and API Resources
Vue 3 Composition API — reactive state, components, props, emits, slots, and composables
Inertia.js — the modern monolith SPA architecture, shared data, and form helpers
Pinia — clean, scalable state management for Vue 3
Tailwind CSS — build polished, responsive interfaces without writing custom CSS
Authentication & Authorization — Sanctum tokens, session auth, roles and permissions
Testing with PHPUnit — feature tests and unit tests that give you confidence to refactor
Deployment — get your app live on a real server, not just on localhost
Who this course is for
Beginners who know basic PHP and JavaScript and want their first developer job
Laravel developers who want to add modern frontend skills and stop relying on Blade alone
Vue developers who want a powerful backend to pair with their frontend skills
Anyone tired of tutorial hell who wants two finished projects in their portfolio

I really loved how this course started; the initial lessons were excellent and kept me fully engaged. However, once I reached Section 25, I noticed a big shift. The content moved away from the latest Laravel 12 and Vue 3 focus and started using older versions like Laravel 10-11-ish, along with Vue 2 and Blade. It was a bit disappointing to see the focus move toward these older methods, especially since the modern way of connecting them (Inertia) wasn't really discussed in those later parts. While the information is still great for learning the basics, it didn't quite match the 'latest version' promise in the title. That said, even with those changes, this course is absolutely still worth it. The teaching is so good that I still found it very valuable for understanding how everything works under the hood. My advice to others is just to manage your expectations—don't expect the very newest setup the whole way through—but definitely dive in for the quality of the teaching!

If you are just starting out with Laravel or Vue, perhaps this course goes too fast. But if you already have basic knowledge, this course is all you need. You can start a great project without wandering around the internet. Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

This course covers a lot of ground. It was my first step into the Laravel universe, and Eding Muhammad's course made sure everything went as painlessly as possible. I've found a lot of the things I was looking for (except one I would mention later). Learning was made even more "interesting" by the fact that Laravel and a lot of libraries used in this course have been updated since it was recorded, and have changed the way they're configured and used. Nothing too crazy (I followed the course using Laravel 8 versus Laravel 5 in the course). If anything, it made me into look into the official documentation and get acquainted with it, at regular intervals. So at first, I was rather concerned about the possible frustrations of dealing with different versions, but overall, it wasn't too hard. And you might find help in the question sections sometimes, if you decide to go this route (that is using the latest version of Laravel while watching course made with an older version). I think I should mention what was my biggest disappointment though: there is no implementation of the Passport api authentication and token management using Vue ; the project uses the basic laravel session mecanism and therefore mixes a little bit of Laravel templates with Vue template, to have the authentication handled by Laravel web pages... Didn't like that one bit. I was a bit depressed when I reached that point after spending hours building the project and the api. I could have removed 2 stars for that. But I had learnt so much already, and since I was already rather familiar with vue, I managed to get the information I was looking for elsewhere anyway. The english is not always easy to understand right away. You often have to guess while following the code. Also, some explanations are missing, and at times, I found the naming of variables a bit too cryptic or vague (ie $q for query, and you're never told that's what it means). Well I'm nit-picking. The instructor is nice, answers question, and overall offers a very good project, simple enough to learn easily, rich enough to cover a lot of features and concepts. So overall I can recommend this course.

This is an excellent course. Eding has been adding more VUE videos and a new Laravel 7 section so he is constantly updating and putting in work for this course. I have learned a lot about Laravel and VUE so far. I am 70% done with the course. I started this course with some basic understanding of Laravel and this has helped me learn much more. I knew nothing of Vue and this has definitely helped me get a good understanding of VUE directives and when/where to use them. I am still learning but this course has been helpful. The only thing I recommend for Eding is maybe explain a little more what each method/function, does... etc. Although a developer should always read the docs anyway IMO. Great course!
By Mr. Newton on 5/29/2020
Great course ! I was able to pick up something that I missed. PS. -1 It would be perfect you really create all the Vue component (e.g. Login, register, verify, resetPassword,) with that you will have completely separate front and backend. better yet separate vue and laravel that would be a 5 star.

Some of the ideas of this course are awesome and explained really thoroughly, but not all of them. If you do not know anything about Laravel and Vue, at least go and read the documentation first to familiarize yourself with the terminology and then come back and start this course. The English of the instructor takes a little getting used to but after a while, it wasn't an issue. The git part of the videos was cool at first but got really annoying fast, there are videos that take a few minutes longer than they are because of the version control at the beginning and the end of the video, and while it's easily skippable, I think it's not so useful after the first few lessons. It was kind of disappointing to see communication between components handled only with emit, and while state management/Vuex was mentioned, it was never really presented in this course. Overall, this course is ok if you want to familiarize yourself with Laravel and Vue, it gets the job done when it comes to building a SPA, but you may want to spend a little extra time researching best practices and alternate ways of doing things learnt here.

First chapters were exelelent - laravel explained and showed in web app, later on when vue and SPA introduced, I was starting to be confused - not all episodes are videos - something is just text - which is not so easy to follow. In overall the course is above average and very detailed (git repo also available), later chapters are advanced and not so structured as first chapters.

EDIT: Below is my original review. It was 2 1/2 stars, because I think the course didn't deliver on Vue. Now the author has added several modules explicitly for Vue, and they are great. It was the thing missing for the 5 stars -------------------------------------- I have mixed feelings on this course. I already have pretty good experience with Laravel, but none with Vue, that's why I bought it in first place. The Laravel part, is one of the very best courses in Udemy, I learned a lot of good practices, both in Laravel and Git But I just gave up on the Vue part. The course says it is updated for 2019, and there are lots of things you can't follow because the some specifications changed in 2017 or so, and the course isn't updated. There are several things you can only do using Internet Explorer 11 (WTF!) or Firefox, that won't work on any Chromium based browser, of course, there must be some workaround, but I came here to learn, not to spend hours and hours on the internet on how to make a course work. The communication with the instructor... well... check at my questions, I think they are pretty well documented, and all I got is "download my code from Git", seriously? Fortunately I bought the course on one of those 10 USD sales (it isn't worth much more), anyother way I'd be pretty mad.
By Reynald Tolentino on 5/3/2019
I think this course is best for people who already know the basics of Vue and Laravel. I think this course can still be expanded more on the vue-laravel authentication side since the lacking part was when user session data was stored on the client side (window object) which raised some's eyebrows as it seems that there was a better method. Other than that I definitely recommend this course. I now have a clear picture on how to utilize Vue on Laravel and one would learn from the good coding practice in this course.
By George Daniel S. Uy on 8/23/2018
This course is Great very detailed and easy to follow The Instructor knows what his doing and very knowledgeable in the topic +points for git repository per lesson if you are lose you can look up into it to compare codes minor trouble of typo errors but not a big deal. I hope the following lessons about vue.js will come out soon like what it says in the video or else i will feel scammed. ^______^v
