3 Ways to Eliminate Duplicate HTML Blocks in Blade Templates

Source: Dev.to

When duplicate HTML blocks appear in a Blade template, there are several ways to eliminate the repetition.

Method 1: @include Directive

Create hello-world.blade.php:

  Hello World

Use @include to load it:

@include('hello-world')

this is content

@include('hello-world')

Method 2: Component

Create components/hello-world.blade.php:

  Hello World

Use the component tag to load it:

this is content

Method 3: ob_start

@php(ob_start())

  Hello World

@php($hello = ob_get_clean())

{!! $hello !!}

this is content

{!! $hello !!}

The first two are official Laravel approaches, but both require extracting the duplicate block into a separate file. The third method uses ob_start to capture the output into a buffer, then retrieves it—no extra file needed. It’s suitable for blocks that only repeat within a single template and aren’t worth extracting into their own file.
