I have installed Tailwindcss on Laravel 9 and the problem is that whatever I change in the code in the blade.php files, Tailwindcss does not work. Only when I run npm run dev and refresh the page, the effect is visible.
Why after each code change in laravel blade files I have to do npm run dev otherwise tailwindcss does not work as if it does not recognize its classes.
Run npm run watch to watch for changes and recompile your styles and scripts when you save.
The npm run watch command will continue running in your terminal and
watch all relevant CSS and JavaScript files for changes. Webpack will
automatically recompile your assets when it detects a change to one of these files:

I´m compiling the SASS file with Laravel 8 mix:
// SASS/CSS files
mix.sass('resources/assets/scss/app.scss','public/assets/css')
.sourceMaps(false).version();
However, the .map file is only generated when I run npm run prod. If I run npm run dev, the .map isn´t created. Usually, it should be the other way around. Any idea what´s wrong with the configuration here?
I am using Vue in laravel. When I make changes in vue code these changes doesn't appear until I run this command:
npm run production
I want to use vue without this command or at least one time should be enough
The Vue code that you write must be transpiled to vanilla javascript so that most of the browsers out there can understand it (not all browsers understand Vue or the underlying javascript version, such as ES6).
Additionally, most likely the code you write has many dependencies (including Vue itself) but also many other libraries. npm run generates a single javascript file with all the necessary code to run, but also stripping out all other portions of libraries that you don't use. If this didn't happen, it would take a lot of time to your page to load because the browser would need to load all the libraries.
You can simply run npm run watch to keep building vue into vanilla javascript code as you are working on vue components.
What does npm run watch does exactly?
In package.json file in the root folder of your laravel project, you can see that there is a script of "watch" which then runs npm run development -- --watch. Here, --watch part is important. npm run development compiles or builds vue components into ./public/js/app.js and also creates css styles in ./public/css/ corresponding to the styles that you apply inside vue components tags.
./public/js/app.js and ./public/css/*.css files are then included in php blades and it serves as vue components.
Using npm run development is recommeded while you are working on your local dev environment rather than npm run production, which command itself implies that it builds production version of vue components. In production version, vue-devtools cannot inspect vue components but it does in development version.
And as --watch part keeps its eye on vue components' chages and it builds as soon as you make any change in .vue files. So you run npm run watch once, you are good to go. No need to run npm run development or npm run production every time.
To update our code on port id need to run npm rum production command
First post.
I'm currently building a Laravel Nova application. I'm making changes to the dashboard component - more specifically the file within the "resources/js/views/Dashboard.vue".
I'm struggling to build the component - does anyone know how to build the component? I have some code which runs webpack.mix to build my JS and SCSS files, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't include the files within the Laravel Nova instance.
Any help will be great.
EXTRA:
I've already tried run the webpack command to build from inside the Laravel Nova instance but it errors out.
UPDATE
I found renaming my webpack.mix.js.dist to webpack.mix.js, running npm run dev whilst within the ./nova directory worked... but only after running php artisan nova:publish
I've wrote a command to compile all these steps but do I have to run php artisan nova:publish everytime, just seems...tedious?
By default, Nova's JavaScript is compiled for production. As such, you will not be able to access the Vue DevTools out of the box without compiling Nova's JavaScript for development. To accomplish this, you may use the following terminal commands from the root of your Nova project:
cd ./vendor/laravel/nova
mv webpack.mix.js.dist webpack.mix.js
npm install
npm run dev
rm -rf node_modules
cd -
php artisan nova:publish

Is it possible to run only scss files on laravel mix?
I need to update only css info, and making the compiler run everything it takes long time.
Instead of doing always "npm run development", coul have another command running only scss files.
Yes You Can But:
You will have to learn about webpack and mix first then you can handle this
If you are working on vue.js then use
npm run watch
You will not have to run it again and again only changes will be compiled wherever you made.
And read package.json it provides commands related to compiling assets.

I am running npm run watch and it works perfectly with all my SASS or CSS files. I also have this line of code there:
.scripts(['resources/assets/js/specific/dashboard.js'], 'public/js/specific/all.js')
Every time I run npm run watch dashboard.js is succesfully compiled into all.js.
However every time I make a change in dashboard.js laravel mix instantly empties all.js never to fill it up again. If I Ctrl+c the process and run npm run watch again it compiles it successfully again.
This is bad because every time I make a change in the js (that I'm currently developing) I need to go back and restart the process and wait for it.
