dskripchenko/laravel-admin

🌐 English · Русский · Deutsch · 中文

A Laravel admin-panel constructor inspired by Orchid, with a Vue 3 SPA frontend.

Live demo: laravel-admin.dskripchenko.space — a shop and a blog with a few thousand records, a showcase where every field, layout and action shows its own source, and this documentation inside the panel. No sign-up: pick Administrator, Editor or Viewer on the login page; the data resets every hour.

Admin::resources([UserResource::class, ArticleResource::class]);
Admin::screen([ContactScreen::class, SystemStatusScreen::class]);
Admin::menu()->add(
    MenuNode::make('content', 'Content')->icon('book')->children([
        MenuNode::resource('articles'),
        MenuNode::dashboard('analytics'),
    ]),
);

What's inside

• CRUD pipeline — declare an Eloquent model as a Resource, get list/create/edit/view screens for free.
• Custom Screens — non-CRUD pages (forms, dashboards, reports) with Admin::screen(). Handles state, layout, command-bar, validation, permissions.
• Hierarchical menu — fluent Admin::menu()->add(MenuNode::...), any depth, auto-resolve resource()/screen()/dashboard().
• 30+ field types — Input/Number/Select/Combobox/DatePicker/ ColorPicker/FileUpload/Wysiwyg/Markdown/TranslatableInput/Repeater/ RelationSelect/Cascader/TreeSelect/Slug/KeyValue/TagsInput/...
• 15+ layouts — Rows/Columns/Tabs/Wizard+Step/Block/Modal/Drawer/ Wrapper/Infolist/Dashboard/Accordion/View/...
• Tables — sortable columns, presets, filters (input/date/switcher/ options/select-from-model), inline-edit, summary, saved views, group-by, polling, exports (CSV/XLSX/PDF).
• Dashboard — 8 widget types (Stats/Chart/RecentList/Markdown/ Iframe/Table/Heatmap/Gauge), per-user layout overrides, drag/resize, polling.
• Auth & RBAC — multi-guard; a separate admin_users table or your existing users (shared strategy), roles, 2FA TOTP, profile, impersonation, password reset, email verification.
• Audit — append-only log of admin actions (AuditLog + Loggable trait).
• Settings — singleton-style configuration screens.
• Notifications — bell badge + drawer (Database notifications).
• API tokens — Sanctum integration in Profile (conditional).
• Theming — light/dark + per-user preference, @dskripchenko/ui design tokens.
• i18n — locale resolver (6-step priority), TranslatableField bridge for dskripchenko/laravel-translatable.
• Tenancy — TenantResolver / TenantContext / TenantScoped trait. Strategy is host-side; we provide the contract.
• Plugins — AdminPlugin interface; sister-packs use the same hook.
• Testing — AdminTestCase, ActsAsAdmin and InteractsWithAdminResources traits.
• OpenAPI 3.0 — generated from docblock @input/@output tags.

Install

composer require dskripchenko/laravel-admin
php artisan admin:install

That's it — the admin SPA ships prebuilt, no Node needed. Visit /admin/login. Getting started walks through the first resource and the custom-build mode for your own Vue components.

Adding it to an application that already has users, its own API or a proxy? Read Adding the admin to an existing application — including admin:install --shared, which lets your existing users sign in.
