Laravel 6.0 app.js only has require('.bootstrap');?

Question

I just started learning how to work with a Laravel server and I want to use Vue . But after installing the app.js file only has require('/bootstrap'); in it, shouldn't it have the required components and the const app field?

I used npm install and npm run watch . What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Laravel 6 doesn't ship with frontend scaffolding anymore, they shipped that to a new package called Laravel UI so install it and scaffold VueJS

composer require laravel/ui
php artisan ui vue

And if you need the authentication views like login and register

php artisan ui vue --auth
