Nice to see Laravel get an admin panel, even if the price is a little steep.

Laravel has many admin panels, some of them are relatively good and FOSS, e.g. Voyager https://laravelvoyager.com/

Coming from a Django background and having a quick look, damn that is impressively nice.

The nicest thing from Django I've seen is http://jet.geex-arts.com/ but it seems more flashy than useful

One thing they got right is the licensing (AGPL + commercial license).

If Nova folks adopted a similar scheme it would make their product much more popular. And it is because of popularity I may choose to pay for a product.

100/site seems a bit steep for hobbists. Good work in any case.

Yeah as a laravel dev, they definitely priced themselves out of the market. There's really no reason to use this... I mean find a good theme like VueA for admin, add in a bunch of custom things you use like logs/etc... create a boilerplate, and re-use it in all your projects, not hard...

Especially if you can't test it and you need to believe them it works as expected (it probably does, but it's not always the case with other Laravel admin panels.)

Looks nice. I was wondering if this is comparable to October cms? I've used that for some projects and it's really underrated imho.
