Vue Starter Kit - v1.0.1

Troubleshooting

Could not resolve "vue3-apexcharts" imported by "@artisanpack-ui/vue"

Cause: importing from the root of @artisanpack-ui/vue instead of a subpath. The root re-exports Chart, which has vue3-apexcharts as an optional peer that the kit doesn't ship.

Fix: use the narrow subpath:

// bad
import { Button } from '@artisanpack-ui/vue';

// good
import { Button } from '@artisanpack-ui/vue/form';

If the import is in adapter code (@artisanpack-ui/vue-laravel/...) and you can't change it, copy the helper into resources/js/lib/ using subpath imports — see resources/js/lib/InertiaToastProvider.vue for the pattern.

Vite manifest not found

Cause: npm run build hasn't been run, or public/build/manifest.json is missing.

Fix:

npm install
npm run build

For local dev, run npm run dev (or composer dev) instead — Vite serves assets directly from the dev server.

vendor/autoload.php: No such file or directory

You scaffolded the project without composer install. Run:

composer install
cp .env.example .env
php artisan key:generate

The React @artisanpack-ui/vue Sidebar only adds the drawer-open class when its open prop is true. For the always-visible-on-desktop pattern, pass className="lg:drawer-open". The kit's AppLayout already does this.

Wayfinder helpers can't be imported

If import { something } from '@/routes' fails, regenerate:

php artisan wayfinder:generate --no-interaction

Or just keep the dev server running — the Vite plugin regenerates on save.

For routes nested under a prefix (e.g. Route::name('password.')->prefix('password')->group(...)), helpers live in subdirectories:

import { request as passwordRequest } from '@/routes/password';

Class "Livewire\..." not found

Old test or page still references Livewire/Volt. The auth and settings flows were ported to Inertia controllers — search for Volt:: or \Livewire\\ and replace with the $this->post(...) / $this->patch(...) pattern. See testing.md.

CSRF token mismatch

Inertia handles CSRF automatically. If you're hitting this:

  • Make sure SESSION_DOMAIN in .env matches your APP_URL host
  • Clear browser cookies if you switched between localhost and a Herd *.test domain

Database errors during composer create-project

The post-create-project-cmd runs php artisan migrate against your default DB connection. If .env's DB_* values can't connect, migrations fail. Either:

  • Run composer create-project --no-scripts and set up .env manually before running php artisan migrate
  • Or pre-create your database and ensure the credentials in .env.example work

SSR crashes with "ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:13714"

Cause: inertia:start-ssr isn't running, but Inertia is configured to use SSR.

Fix: either run composer dev:ssr (local) / start the SSR daemon (production), or disable SSR by setting INERTIA_SSR_ENABLED=false in .env.

Dark mode doesn't persist

The Appearance page writes the user's choice to localStorage under theme and applies data-theme to <html>. Check:

  • localStorage.getItem('theme') is set
  • The <html> element has the matching data-theme attribute
  • DaisyUI is configured for the chosen theme in resources/css/app.css

Optional packages prompt rewrites my composer.json name

Known quirk inherited from the original kit: OptionalPackagesCommand@updateProjectName always sets the vendor to laravel/. After running it, restore your vendor manually if needed.

This is tracked as a follow-up in the v1.0.0 umbrella — feel free to send a PR.
