Implementing a dynamic product catalog in Laravel and Vue.js involves several steps. Below, I'll provide a basic guide to help you get started. This assumes you have a basic understanding of Laravel and Vue.js.
Install Laravel using Composer:
bashcomposer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel your-project-name
Navigate to your project folder:

Set up a database in your .env
file.
Run migrations to create necessary tables:

Create a Product model and migration:
bashphp artisan make:model Product -m

ProductController

Create a Vue component for your product catalog.
Use Axios or another HTTP client to make API calls to your Laravel backend from your Vue component.
