Step 1 – Install Laravel 11 Application

cd xampp/htdocs

//for ubuntu user
cd var/www/html

Then install Laravel 11 latest application using the following command:

Step 2 – Configure Database with App

Go to downloaded laravel app root directory and open .env file and configure database detail like following:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=db name
DB_USERNAME=db user name
DB_PASSWORD=db password

Step 3 – Create Model & Migration

Run the following command on command prompt to create migration and model:

php artisan make:model Contact -m

The above command will create two files into your laravel livewire form example application, which is located inside the following locations:

  • /app/Models/Contact.php
  • /database/migrations/create_contacts_table.php

Visit to /app/Models directory. And open Contact.php file then add the fillable property code into Contact.php file, like following:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Contact extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'email', 'message'
    ];
}

Then, find create_contacts_table.php file inside /database/migrations/ directory. Then open this file and add the following code into function up() on this file:

    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('contacts', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('email');
            $table->text('message');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

Now, open again your terminal and type the following command on cmd to create tables into your selected database:

php artisan migrate

Step 4 – Create Routes

Visit routes directory and open web.php. And add the following routes into web.php file:

use App\Http\Livewire\Contactus;

Route::get('contact-us-form', Contactus::class);

Step 5 – Installing Livewire Package

Run the following command on command prompt to install livewire package in Laravel 11 app:

composer require livewire/livewire

Then install node js package:

npm install

Next run npm

npm run dev

Now, run database migration command:

php artisan migrate

Step 6 – Build Livewire Components

Run the following command on command prompt to create livewire components in laravel app:

php artisan make:livewire contactus

The above command will create two files, which is located on the following locations:

app/Http/Livewire/Contactus.php

resources/views/livewire/contactus.blade.php

So, open Contactus.php, which is located inside app/http/Livewire directory and add the following code into it:

<?php
  
namespace App\Http\Livewire;
  
use Livewire\Component;
use App\Models\Contact;
  
class Contactus extends Component
{
    public $name;
    public $email;
    public $body;
  
    public function submit()
    {
        $validatedData = $this->validate([
            'name' => 'required|min:6',
            'email' => 'required|email',
            'message' => 'required',
        ]);
  
        Contact::create($validatedData);
  
        return redirect()->to('/contact-us-form');
    }
  
    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.contactus');
    }
}

Next, open contactus.blade.php, which is located inside resources/views/livewire/ directory and add the following code into it:

<form wire:submit.prevent="submit">
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="exampleInputName">Name</label>
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleInputName" placeholder="Enter name" wire:model="name">
        @error('name') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
    </div>
  
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="exampleInputEmail">Email</label>
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail" placeholder="Enter name" wire:model="email">
        @error('email') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
    </div>
  
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="exampleInputbody">Message</label>
        <textarea class="form-control" id="exampleInputbody" placeholder="Enter Message" wire:model="message"></textarea>
        @error('message') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span> @enderror
    </div>
  
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save Contact</button>
</form>

Step 7 – Create Blade Views

Go to resources/views/livewire directory and create home.blade.php. Then add the following code into it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
