decency/nova-input-group

Decency Nova Input Group is a Laravel Nova field for combining multiple form inputs into one compact, visually grouped control. It helps build prefix/suffix fields, compound inputs, and cleaner Nova forms with less layout effort.

Product Decisions This Supports

  • Admin/back-office UX improvements: Supports decisions to improve Laravel Nova forms with input groups (prefixes, suffixes, or addons) for fields such as currency amounts, domains, URLs, social handles, percentages, API keys, and unit-labeled values.
  • Build vs. buy for internal tooling: Gives the team a low-cost alternative to building a custom Nova field or Vue component when the need is limited to formatting a text input with an adjacent label/addon.
  • Roadmap prioritization: Fits small internal-productivity or operations-tooling roadmap items rather than customer-facing product features.
  • Standardization: Can support a consistent admin data-entry pattern across Nova resources, reducing operator confusion and formatting mistakes.
  • Use-case validation: Appropriate when the product need is presentation/context around a text field, not complex input masking, multi-part composition, or advanced validation.

When to Consider This Package

  • Consider it when the product already uses Laravel Nova and needs a simple, low-scope input-group field for admin forms.
  • Consider it when the team is comfortable reviewing and pinning a small MIT package and can verify compatibility with the current Laravel/Nova versions.
  • Consider it when the cost of building and maintaining a custom Nova field is higher than the value of the UX improvement.
  • Look elsewhere if the requirement includes complex masked inputs, conditional field behavior, advanced validation, localization/accessibility requirements, or customer-facing form UX.
  • Treat the low star count and zero dependents as adoption-risk signals: review the source, confirm maintenance status, and be prepared to vendor or fork it if the package becomes unmaintained.
  • Avoid it if the organization requires vendor support, SLAs, or a proven ecosystem footprint for production tooling.

How to Pitch It (Stakeholders)

  • Executive summary: This is a small, MIT-licensed Laravel Nova field that improves internal admin form usability by adding input-group formatting. It is a low-cost, low-scope enhancement for back-office workflows, not a strategic platform dependency.
  • Engineering summary: A lightweight Nova text-field wrapper for prefix/suffix/addon presentation. Adopt only after confirming Nova/Laravel compatibility, pinning the version, and reviewing the package code; the small surface area makes vendoring or replacing it feasible if needed.
  • Product value: Improves operator efficiency and data-entry clarity in admin tools with minimal delivery effort. Best positioned as an internal UX polish item, with risk managed through version pinning and a fallback plan.
