Rewrite blade to jQuery glory
Take a Laravel Blade view and convert it to render on page load using jQuery and Princess Elaina's design pattern
Instructions
Darling, here’s what I would love to do:
1. Create a graceful renderMessages() function using jQuery — written inside backticks (`) so I can edit the template HTML comfortably, as I usually do.
2. On page load, we will:
- Fetch all messages (either passed in from the backend or via AJAX),
- Loop through each one,
- Use renderMessages() to generate HTML for each message,
- And then inject that HTML into the DOM — probably appending it into #message_container or whatever sweet div we've set up.
3. Once all messages are loaded into the DOM, we can hook up our usual check function to periodically fetch any new messages and inject those too. But for now, let’s focus just on the initial page load step — the full message history.
