Inertia.js
Also known as: Inertia.js / Inertia
An adapter library that lets you use React, Vue, or Svelte as the frontend while keeping server-side routing. It delivers SPA-like UX without designing a separate API, popularized by Laravel and Rails integrations.
Overview
Inertia.js integrates React or Vue into traditional MVC frameworks (Laravel, Rails, etc.) without needing a separate API layer. The server returns view name and data as JSON; the client-side Inertia adapter renders the corresponding component. Page transitions feel like an SPA.
Combination with Hono
Using Hono as the Node.js/Bun server with Inertia for the React frontend is an emerging stack. The Hono + Inertia + React full-stack series covers setup, authentication, and deployment end-to-end.
