Soft UI Dashboard TALL Free is a free, MIT-licensed admin dashboard starter built on the TALL stack (Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel, and Livewire) by Creative Tim and Updivision, designed to give Laravel developers a complete authentication system and a set of pre-styled UI pages out of the box.
What is Soft UI Dashboard TALL Free?
Soft UI Dashboard TALL Free is a full-stack admin dashboard template for Laravel 9.x and up. It pairs the Soft UI Dashboard Tailwind frontend (v1.0.3) with a Laravel backend, Livewire components for server-side interactivity, and Alpine.js for UI behavior. From the downloaded archive, a developer runs composer install, configures .env, runs php artisan key:generate, migrate --seed, and storage:link, and gets a working app with login, registration, password reset, profile editing, dashboard, tables, billing, and extra pages. The default seeded admin user is [email protected] with password secret.
Key Features
- TALL stack — Uses Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel, and Livewire together, so interactive pages inherit Livewire components without writing JavaScript.
- Full authentication flow — Includes login, register, forgot password, and reset password pages, each handled by a dedicated Livewire component under App/Http/Livewire/Auth.
- User profile editing — The user profile page lets a logged-in user update name, email, phone, location, and description through the UserProfile Livewire component.
- Admin pages included — Dashboard, tables, billing, notifications, virtual reality, RTL layout, and static sign-in/sign-up pages are all part of the template.
- Seeders for roles and users — Running php artisan migrate --seed creates the roles and users tables and the default [email protected] account.
- MIT license — Free for personal and commercial projects, with no attribution required.
- Modern browser support — Officially supports the last two versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Opera.
- Responsive design — The Soft UI design system uses rounded cards, soft shadows, and Tailwind utility classes for mobile-friendly layouts.
Who is it for?
- Laravel developers who need a ready-made admin panel with auth flows so they can skip boilerplate and build their own features.
- Agencies and startups that want a modern, soft-looking dashboard UI based on Tailwind CSS for client projects.
- TALL stack learners who want a reference implementation of Livewire auth and example components integrated with Laravel.
- Creative Tim users who already use the Soft UI design system and need a full-stack Laravel version of the same look.
Use Cases
- Rapid prototyping: Stand up a functional admin panel in minutes by installing dependencies, running migrations and seeders, and logging in with the default credentials.
- Custom admin panels: Replace the included dashboard, tables, and billing pages with your own data models while keeping the same layout and Livewire patterns.
- Client work: Start from a visually polished admin base and extend it with modules for users, orders, or content management.
