installing into existing project

I have a big Laravel project that I'd love to migrate to Filament but I think I'll have trouble getting a whole migration signed off at once as we'll need to continue developing features for the existing platform in the meantime. Do you have any pointers that might help me introduce filament? I'm thinking of seeing how feasible it might be to move a piece at a time, like recreate user management in filament to replace our existing Vue based area. Then slowly work my way through areas of the system... Does that sound like a feasible way to do it or would you say it's more hassle than it's worth? Obviously my preference would be to start it fresh with Filament installed from day one but this isn't an option right now πŸ˜”

I can't find any information regarding this online, in the docs or in this Discord channel. We've started trying to add Filament in the hope of migrating one piece at a time. Starting with the login and profile pages but I would love some Filament experts to discuss this with to try and scope out any potential issues with doing things this way.

I think it should be possible, I don't see why not. It looks like you're on the right track starting with the login. If you can get to a point where you have one authentication system for both "sides" of your app (the Vue app and the new Filament panel), then you can migrate sections one by one.
