Component Types

Type	Use Case	Key Trait
Full-page	Has own route	#[Layout('layouts.app')]
Nested	Embedded in views	Receives data via props
Form	User input	Uses Form Objects

Example: Searchable List

class UserList extends Component
{
    use WithPagination;

    #[Url]
    public string $search = '';

    public function updatedSearch(): void
    {
        $this->resetPage();
    }

    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.user-list', [
            'users' => User::query()
                ->when($this->search, fn($q) => $q->where('name', 'like', "%{$this->search}%"))
                ->paginate(15),
        ]);
    }
}

<div>
    <input type="text" wire:model.live.debounce.300ms="search">
    <div wire:loading.class="opacity-50">
        @foreach($users as $user)
            <div wire:key="user-{{ $user->id }}">{{ $user->name }}</div>
        @endforeach
    </div>
    {{ $users->links() }}
</div>

Key Rules

• Keep state minimal — use computed properties for derived data
• Use #[Url] for state that should persist in the URL
• Always add wire:key to items in loops
• Use events for cross-component communication
• Add wire:loading states for user feedback

Workflow

1. Determine component type (full-page, nested, or form)
2. Run mcp__laravel-boost__search-docs for Livewire patterns
3. Review existing components in app/Livewire/
4. Implement with wire:key on loops and wire:loading states
