Panel ->assets() result in 404. What am I missing?
I'm new to Filament and have been following the guide. I got to this point and followed the directions to create a custom css sheet in resources/css/filament-organize.css:
https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/panels/configuration#registering-assets-for-a-panel
In my network tab, I get this error:
http://localhost/css/app/filament-organize.css?v=3.2.121.0 404 not found
Sure enough, that file doesn't exist at that path. Do I need to do anything else config-wise to get this to work?

What are you really trying to do? If you want to customize your look and feel you can create a custom-theme, it’s the recommended way to do so

Ok, so I found in the assets docs that I need to run
php artisan filament:assets
which I did and now it works. Do we just need to know this command and run it when we make css changes, or should this be added to my npm run dev
command somehow? What's the normal setup here?I added a pull request here to add this to the config docs since it isn't clear. Is this accurate? https://github.com/filamentphp/filament/pull/14629

When making changes to your assets you can run npm run dev to watch it live. Once you’re done you can run npm run build to compile all the classes.
Run this in your project’s directory

I solved it by adding it to vite since I use @apply tailwind classes. This works for me:

I didnt want to do a whole theme just to add a few classes to the main div
Should I anyway?
I'm new and definitely want to do things the 'right' way
Having one sheet per panel kinda makes sense which is why I did it this way
Creating a custom theme seems like the best way to do it. But this is Laravel/Filament, there are lots of ways to kill a rabbit as we say in Portugal
Custom themes are panel based too. You can reuse a theme for other panels or create one for each
I always recommend Following the documentation because if the projects grows and other devs pick it up, things are mostly standard
I'm portugese as well, but in USA. Obrigado friend

I'll make a theme and have fun with it, thanks!
De nada! 🇵🇹 if you give me your GitHub username I’ll add you to a private repository with a full guide on how to build a theme, that I’ll try to merge with the official docs
It’s private for the moment as I only want to share it when completed
Thanks I think for now I'll keep it simple but I'll dm when I get to the advanced stuff
But the docs explain it really well
Sent!
From the docs, making a theme was definitely the way to go. Thank you!
