AdminLTE 4 for Laravel

Official AdminLTE 4 integration for Laravel — Bootstrap 5.3, vanilla JS (no jQuery), Vite-ready.

🔗 Live demo →  ·  Get started →

This package gives you a config-driven sidebar menu, ready-to-extend Blade layouts, and a set of AdminLTE Blade components on top of the admin-lte npm package.

Also available for your stack

The same AdminLTE 4 dashboard, in the framework you know best — you're looking at the Laravel edition:

_{Frameworks: React · Next.js · Vue · Nuxt · Laravel (you are here) · Django}

Also available as the original AdminLTE (HTML · Bootstrap 5.3 · vanilla JS — demo) and the legacy AdminLTE v3 (Bootstrap 4 · jQuery — demo). Need a full backend, not just markup? See the premium Laravel dashboards below.

What's included:

• 40 Blade components (cards, widgets, forms, charts, calendars, kanban boards, modals)
  • Widget components: Card, Small Box, Info Box, Alert, Callout, Progress, Timeline, Ratings, Direct Chat, Toast, Tabs, Accordion, Breadcrumb, and more
  • Form components: Input, Select, Textarea, Switches, Color pickers, Flatpickr, Tom Select
  • Tool components: Modals, Datatables, Rich editor, Charts (ApexCharts), Vector Map, Calendar, Kanban, Wizard
• Multi-language support (i18n) with 9 locales: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Japanese
• Plugin system for lazy-loading JS libraries (Flatpickr, Tom Select, Tabulator, Quill, ApexCharts, jsVectorMap, FullCalendar, SortableJS)
• Scaffolding system (adminlte:scaffold) with full DB backing for 18 sections: dashboard, mailbox, chat, kanban, calendar, projects, file-manager, profile, settings, invoice, pricing, faq, notifications, api, impersonation, activity-log, realtime, rbac — each DB-backed section also generates factories, Form Requests, Policies, and feature tests
• Authorization (RBAC) — dependency-free roles & permissions, HasRoles trait, role/permission middleware, permission-aware Gate, and a Users/Roles management UI (docs)
• Auth scaffolding (adminlte:make-auth) for plain/Breeze/Fortify integration, with hardening: login throttling, email verification, password confirmation
• Account management — avatar, change password, active sessions, delete account (docs)
• Database notifications wired into the navbar bell + a notifications page (docs)
• Activity/audit log with automatic auth-event logging + user impersonation ("log in as") (docs)
• Data-driven dashboard, Sanctum API tokens, and a real-time (Reverb/Echo) layer for live chat & notifications
• ⌘K command palette — searches your menu, opens via the navbar pill or Cmd/Ctrl+K
• Bundled demo/showcase pages — Dashboard v1/v2/v3, Widgets, UI Elements, Forms, Tables, Layout Options, Theme Generator (toggle with config('adminlte.demo'))
• RTL layout support + 9 locales
• Config-driven sidebar menu with permissions, active states, badges
• Auth views (login, register, login-v2, register-v2, lockscreen, forgot password, reset password)
• Error pages (404, 500, maintenance)
• Vite-first asset pipeline

Documentation

Full docs live in the docs/ directory — and are also served inside your app at /docs (rendered with the AdminLTE layout; disable with 'docs' => false):

The legacy jeroennoten/laravel-adminlte targets AdminLTE 3 (Bootstrap 4 + jQuery). This package is the AdminLTE 4 successor: Bootstrap 5.3, vanilla JS, Laravel 13, PHP 8.3+, Vite instead of precompiled assets.

Requirements

• PHP 8.3+
• Laravel 13
• Node.js 18+ (for the Vite asset pipeline)

Installation

adminlte:install publishes config/adminlte.php, drops the Vite entry stubs into resources/js/adminlte.js and resources/css/adminlte.css, and offers to npm install the frontend dependencies (admin-lte, bootstrap, @popperjs/core, overlayscrollbars, bootstrap-icons, sass).

Add the two entry files to your vite.config.js:

Then build:

Check your install at any time:

Usage

A page

The menu

Define your sidebar in config/adminlte.php under menu:

Supported keys: header, text, route, url, icon, icon_color, label, label_color, active (url patterns), target, can (gate), submenu. Active state and authorization are resolved automatically by the menu filters.

Components

Widget Components

Form Components

Tool Components

Navbar Components

Form components auto-display validation errors from the session and repopulate with old() input. Chart, map, and calendar components auto-enable their plugins.

Scaffolding

Generate complete, working application sections — migrations, models, controllers, seeders, routes, and data-driven views — with one command:

Routes are added to an idempotent, auth-protected /admin group named adminlte.*. Run php artisan migrate and visit /admin/{section}.

Authentication

plain publishes Login / Register / ForgotPassword / ResetPassword controllers and registers the matching routes, all wired to the package's adminlte::auth.* views.

Customization

Everything in config/adminlte.php is documented inline — title, logo, layout switches (layout_fixed_sidebar, fixed_navbar, sidebar_mini, …), the color-mode toggle, sidebar theme, and custom element classes.

For deeper visual changes (sidebar width, breakpoints, brand colors), compile AdminLTE's SCSS — see the customization guide and Option B in resources/css/adminlte.css.

Premium Laravel Dashboards

This package is free and MIT-licensed. When you need a production Laravel admin with a real backend out of the box — Eloquent CRUD, Fortify authentication, role-based permissions, and dozens of polished pages — these commercial Laravel editions from DashboardPack pick up where the free template leaves off. Each ships Laravel 13 + Inertia.js 3 + React 19 + Tailwind CSS v4 with a working database, not static mockups.
