Hi @mtdmy, you'll need to:

  1. Create a new Stimulus controller at resources/js/controllers/hello_controller.js, and then register it with Waterhole's Stimulus instance in resources/js/app.js:
import HelloController from './controllers/hello_controller';

window.Stimulus.register('hello', HelloController);

  1. Set up a JavaScript compilation step - probably the easiest way is to use Laravel Mix. Output your compiled JavaScript to resources/dist/app.js.

  2. Add this script to Waterhole's JavaScript bundle in your service provider:

Extend\Script::add(resource_path('dist/app.js'));

Hopefully that's enough to get you started – let me know if you have any specific questions.
