Oct 2021 - Dec 2022
Magewire is a Laravel Livewire port for Magento 2. The goal is to make it fun and easy to build modern, reactive and dynamic interfaces, without leaving the comfort of Magento's core layout and template systems. Magewire can be the missing piece when you intend to build dynamic and reactive features, but don't require or feel comfortable working with a full JavaScript framework like Vue or React.
