About This Episode:
Deleting data is easy. Deleting data safely and intentionally is where real applications are made.
In this episode of Pragmatic Laravel, we implement survey deletion the right way — with confirmation, clear feedback, and reusable infrastructure that works across the entire app.
Rather than wiring up one-off JavaScript or brittle confirmation dialogs, we build a flexible alert system that supports:
- Server-side flash alerts
- Client-side JavaScript alerts
- Reusable confirmation dialogs via data-* attributes
What you’ll learn:
- How to wire up the destroy action using RESTful resource routes
- How to confirm destructive actions before they happen
- How to build a reusable alert/confirmation system in Laravel
- How PHP and JavaScript can work together cleanly
- How to improve UX without sacrificing maintainability
Topics covered:
- Resourceful routes and controllers
- Delete buttons with confirmation
- Flash messaging infrastructure
- JavaScript-powered confirmation dialogs
- data-confirm patterns for scalable UI behavior
This approach scales beyond surveys — you can reuse it anywhere you need confirmations, alerts, or user feedback across your Laravel application.
💥 About the Series:
Pragmatic Laravel focuses on building real applications with Laravel — emphasizing clarity, maintainability, and thoughtful design decisions instead of shortcuts or magic.
