The Livewire Starter Kit is a basic reference implementation for building a storefront with Lunar using Laravel Livewire. It demonstrates how to load products and collections, manage a cart, and process a checkout.
This starter kit is intended as a reference implementation only and is not production-ready. An Inertia + Vue Starter Kit is currently in development and will serve as a production-ready foundation for new storefront projects.
To install Lunar into an existing Laravel application instead, follow the installation guide.
