Build Faster with Laravel Jetstream

Jetstream is Laravel's official application starter kit. Instead of starting with a blank Laravel installation, Jetstream provides a complete, production-ready starting point including the entire user authentication flow, profile management, and optional team management features. It uses Tailwind CSS for styling and your choice of Livewire or Inertia.js for the frontend.

What's Included Out of the Box

Jetstream is installed via Composer into a fresh Laravel application. You'll choose your preferred frontend stack (Livewire or Inertia) and whether you need team features during installation.

Step 1: Create a fresh Laravel project

composer create-project laravel/laravel jetstream-app
cd jetstream-app

Step 2: Install Jetstream

composer require laravel/jetstream

Step 3: Install with Livewire (recommended for beginners)

php artisan jetstream:install livewire
# Add --teams to enable team management
php artisan jetstream:install livewire --teams

Step 4: Install with Inertia.js (Vue or React)

php artisan jetstream:install inertia
# For React instead of Vue:
php artisan jetstream:install inertia --react

Step 5: Finalize installation

npm install && npm run build
php artisan migrate

Jetstream scaffolds all authentication views and logic. Two-factor authentication can be enabled per user from the profile page. The UI and controllers are fully customizable.

When installed with --teams, Jetstream adds multi-tenancy support. Every user belongs to a personal team and can create additional teams. Team members have roles (admin, editor) and permissions.

// Get current user's teams
$teams = auth()->user()->allTeams();

// Check team role
if (auth()->user()->hasTeamRole($team, 'admin')) {
    // User is admin of this team
}

Jetstream includes profile photo upload, password updates, browser session management, and account deletion — all pre-built and ready to use.

Jetstream uses Laravel Sanctum to provide first-party API token management. Users can generate personal access tokens directly from the UI.

Route::middleware('auth:sanctum')->get('/user', function (Request $request) {
    return $request->user();
});

You can publish Jetstream's components to your own application to modify them. This is essential for branding or changing behavior.

# Publish Livewire components
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=jetstream-views

# Publish Inertia components
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=jetstream-inertia

Jetstream supports Tailwind's dark mode out of the box. Users can toggle between light and dark mode from their profile settings or the navigation bar.
