Solution 1:^[1]

All HTML code should be covered with single <div>. Then it will work.

Solution 2:^[2]

add liveWire's css and js in the base.blade.php file and it works:

<head>
...
    @livewireStyles
</head>
<body>
    ...

    @livewireScripts
</body>
</html>

Solution 3:^[3]

You don't need the :click event to do this, you can simply use:

wire:$toggle('property')

And you don't need to use the a tag; you can simply use the button tag. So your button code will look like this:

<button type="button" wire:$toggle='showCreateForm' class="btn btn-success">Add New Category</button>

Solution 4:^[4]

I think this will help you

<a href="#" wire:click.prevent="$toggle('showCreateForm')" class="btn btn-success">Add New Category</a>

Solution 5:^[5]

use <livewire:styles /> and <livewire:scripts /> (instead @livewireStyles and @livewireScripts)
