What is Autoload?
Explore the exciting possibilities with a component-based Filament CMS.
What is Autoload?
Autoload is a Laravel package that is used for developing a CMS-controlled website with commonly used features and concepts; such as Pages, Menus, Content Blocks, etc. The goal is to create a fully-controlled, CMS-driven website with several enhancements like page caching, automatic sitemaps, automatic image optimizations and WebP conversion, and more. Autoload is labeled as a "component-based" website builder, so what does "component-based" mean?
Component-based
Autoload's primary feature is using Pages and Content Blocks and each Content Block should be it's own "component." These "components"/blocks are singular and can be customized individually, but when arranged in an order, they create a Page. These Content Blocks can be reused and customized on a per-page basis. Think of having a grid Content Block that has space for up to 3 "callout" sections and each of these sections have an image, headline, and body copy. This Content Block can be used across two separate Pages with different callouts on each, but it utilized the same, underlying Blade component. This pairs nicely with Tailwind, however, you can use any frontend styling library of your choosing.
FilamentPHP
Autoload utilizes Filament as its backend admin panel and is proud to sponsor Filament in their continued development efforts. Filament offers the flexibility required for Autoload to be able to perform complex tasks, such as Global Scheduling and displaying an icon on each resource that has been scheduled. Filament is a great and powerful tool on its own, but serving as the backbone for Autoload to work the way it was designed, was well worth the sponsorship (and more).
