FAQPage Schema
How do I handle form validation and submission in React with Inertia.js?▼

To build a SPA with Inertia.js and React, you define React page components in your pages directory and use the Link component for client-side routing, letting Inertia handle the data transfer from your Laravel backend without building a separate API.

Does Inertia.js v2 support deferred props and data prefetching for React?▼

Yes, Inertia.js v2 supports deferred props, data prefetching, and polling for React applications to optimize the user experience by loading data only when needed and caching page visits before the user clicks a link.

What is the best way to navigate between pages in an Inertia React application?▼

Use Inertia.js for your React SPA when you want to build a single-page application powered by a Laravel backend without writing a separate REST or GraphQL API, as it passes data directly to your React components via server-side routing.

How do I optimize React component rendering when scrolling with Inertia.js?▼

Optimize React component rendering during scrolling by using the Inertia.js v2 WhenVisible feature, which defers loading and rendering specific page components or data until they enter the user's viewport.
