[Tutorial] How to work with Laravel projects on github

leokhoa

Laragon bundles composer, nodejs, npm, git & git flow so there should be no problem if you want to work with projects on github.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to work with Laravel 5 Boilerplate Project: https://github.com/rappasoft/laravel-5-boilerplate

Open Terminal (Menu > Laragon > Terminal or press CTRL + ALT + T)
Clone the repo to Document Root and cd to it:

git clone https://github.com/rappasoft/laravel-5-boilerplate
cd laravel-5-boilerplate

Run composer & npm to install all dependencies:

composer install
npm install

Create database for the project: Menu > MySQL > Create database
for example: laraboiler
Create your .env from .env.example

cp .env.example .env

Update your .env (change database connection properly)

DB_CONNECTION=mysql          
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1            
DB_PORT=3306                 
DB_DATABASE=laraboiler       
DB_USERNAME=root             
DB_PASSWORD=

Generate application key

php artisan key:generate

Init data to database

php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed

Install gulp globally (Optional)

npm install -g gulp

Run gulp watch

gulp watch

That's all forks!
Now, Reload Apache & you can browser the project at: http://laravel-5-boilerplate.dev
