# Volt Development

## When to Apply

Activate this skill when:

- Creating Volt single-file components
- Converting traditional Livewire components to Volt
- Testing Volt components

## Documentation

Use `search-docs` for detailed Volt patterns and documentation.

## Basic Usage

Create components with `{{ $assist->artisanCommand('make:volt [name] [--test] [--pest]') }}`.

Important: Check existing Volt components to determine if they use functional or class-based style before creating new ones.
