To get an inpression: 2 entry points for AdminLTE are:

The AdminLTE renderer is a PHP class offers several methods to render

  • the page
  • layout elements
  • components you can use on the page
    • navigation
    • grid
    • boxes
    • buttons

The class is compatible to PHP 8 … up to PHP 8.4.

Advantages:

  • less code
    The methods of the renderer classes allow you to write less code. You need to set the main values for texts, colors, behavior … and don’t need to care about the correct html code with attributes and aria roles.

  • overrides
    Next to the documented array keys for the attributes you can (very often) often just add your html attributes and values.

For each widget there is a live editor with all variables. Pre defined values can be selected from a dropdown.

You see the PHP source code of your input and what is rendered plus its html source.

Next to a select box there is a buton [Loop]. It generates a preview with all values of the selected option.

BTW: there is also a loop to render all values at once.
