WELD and Sourdough#
This page explains how Sourdough and WELD divide the work of starting a Wayne State app, and which one to pick for your project.
What Sourdough does#
Sourdough is the starter tool for every shape of Wayne State app. It bakes four shapes today: raw PHP, Laravel with Blade, Laravel with Blade plus Vue islands, and Laravel with Inertia and Vue; only raw PHP with a Vue SPA is not available yet.
Where WELD sits#
WELD is one of those shapes, Laravel with Inertia and Vue, with every part already joined and proved to work together. In other words, WELD is the Laravel + Inertia/Vue shape that Sourdough's templates describe, already shaped.
Where changes belong#
If every app should get a change, it belongs in Sourdough; if only this shape should, it lives here.
