component.blade.php => component.x.php

[marknuyens]

Hey there,

Are you tired of typing ".blade.php" over and over again?

Since we're mostly dealing with the "X" symbols when it comes to components in Blade, wouldn't it be nice to have support for an alias that allows for: component.x.php instead of component.blade.php.

Less characters, less typing, more doing. ;-)

Love to hear your opinions!

Good idea, been writing a lot of <x-...> tag lately.

The Illuminate\View\Factory and Illuminate\View\FileFinder classes both have a method addExtension that you should be able to use to do this yourself (probably in the boot method of one of your ServiceProviders).

The only thing you'll be missing is that the artisan view:cache command won't cache these files, so you will have to define your own version of that command if you want to pre-cache the views.
