Discussion on: How to create a nested-list of categories in Laravel blade

[Alin Chindea]

you paginate. where you do $categories = Category::whereNull('parent_id')->with('childs')->get(); you can do $categories = Category::whereNull('parent_id')->with('childs')->paginate(x); where x is the number of items you want to show on page.

that will do pagination based on the count of the parent_id category.
I wanted to display the categories with a hierarchy. Ended up with this:

$categories = Category::where('level', 0)->with('descendants')->get()->flattenTree()->paginate(15);
