Ping CRM on Yii 2 ¶
A Yii 2 demo application to illustrate how Inertia.js works.
With Inertia you are able to build single-page apps using classic server-side routing and controllers, without building an API.
This application is a port of the original Ping CRM written in Laravel and based on the Yii 2 Basic Project Template.
Based on the application Ping CRM on Yii 2 github and yii extension.
Changes: Updated Vue to version 3, updated npm packages and composer. Converted Vue files to Composition API (script setup).

- add new controller, that extends from inertia controller
- add one ore more actions
- return from the actions with a call to the inertia render method
<?php
namespace app\controllers;
use tebe\inertia\web\Controller;
class CustomController extends Controller
{
public function actionIndex()
{
$params = [
'data' => [],
];
return $this->inertia('demo/index', $params);
}
}

In the frontend ¶
