Course Update Notice: This course has been updated for Filament V3 and Livewire V3.

Course Description

In this course, we will be Learning FilamentPHP (an amazing Admin Panel Builder) practically by building two projects.

As a Second Project, we will be building a Support Ticket System, and along the way, we will be learning the following topics:

• Working with BelongToMany Relationships using RelationManagers.

• How to Customize RelationManagers as per our needs and add/remove Actions.

• Working with Badges and customizing their Colour based on a condition.

• How to filter data (using Scopes and Query Builder) before it gets displayed in the Filament form.

• Learn how to Customize the data before saving it to the Database.

In the third Section, we will use Authorizations and implement Roles and Permissions without any external plugins. We will be learning the following:

• Implement Authorization/Policies throughout the project based on the existing Roles/Permissions.

In the fourth section, we will be fixing some miscellaneous issues and adding a few features like:

• Changing filament's default notification title

• Changing simple resource CRUDs to Modal Resources.

• Making the Sidebar collapsible and changing the default width

• Displaying different badge colors based on certain conditions.

• Work on widgets, like header widgets

• Work with charts and we'll also look at implementing the filter functionality

• Implement SMS sending flow (we won't send the actual SMS, but we'll mock the flow)

• Learn how to implement Database Notifications and Realtime Database Notifications

• Learn how to handle medias in Filament.

In the Fifth Section, we'll be Building a Custom Filament Widget from Scratch, and we will be learning the following topics:

• In this section, we'll build a metric widget (similar to Laravel Nova) and MetricsOverviewWidget (wrapper for metric widgets, just like StatsOverviewWidget)

• After building the widgets, we'll look at their use cases with proper examples and Implementations.

• We'll also learn how to define artisan commands to automate the creation of these custom widgets.

Finally, we'll deploy the project to Production and make the necessary changes.
