BlockCraft

AmjadIqbal.BlockCraft

The modern TipTap block editor & document builder for October CMS.

A drop-in replacement for October's Froala rich editor: a Vue 3 + TipTap block editor that saves clean HTML or structured JSON, and stays stable inside Tailor repeaters.

  • Clean HTML or structured TipTap JSON output, chosen per field
  • Opens October's own Media Manager for images, with no extra setup
  • Server-side sanitization in both modes, independent of the browser
  • Stable inside Tailor and FormController repeaters, with no leaked editors
  • Toolbar buttons, height and read-only mode set from fields.yaml
  • Ships pre-built: no build step to install

VueForge

AmjadIqbal.VueForge

The rapid Vue 3 component & widget engine for October CMS backend interfaces.

Drop a real Vue 3 single-file component into any October CMS backend form as a FormWidget, with props, JSON save and load, and two-way sync already wired up.

  • Vue 3 single-file components (script setup, TypeScript) compiled by Vite
  • Two-way v-model sync with the form's native submit
  • Saved values are parsed and sanitized server-side before they are stored
  • php artisan vueforge:make scaffolds a new widget and its component
  • TagInput and JsonEditor example widgets included
  • Works on JSON columns and plain text columns, including Tailor fields
