Get Started

Every niche is a separate project and they work in it's own folder without requiring files from another route. Every niche project folder contains layout, views, javascript and sass files.

Each project is developed as simple as possible to make your work easier. When defining the route, creating a controller is avoided and is only defined to return the view. Therefore, the code for each page is in its own view blade file.

Project Folders

Laravel sass uses webpack to compile and move static files to public folder. In order to run webpack tasks, you need to install the node dependencies.

npm install

For development environment: compiling the sass files and applying the changes in the static files to the "public" folder served by the web server

npm run dev

Launch the project on local server (By default it runs at 127.0.0.1:8080)

php artisan serve

You can now view your project at 127.0.0.1:8080

First of all, you need to compile static files and sass file for production environment.

npm run prod

For all the next steps, you may follow the instructions in the Laravel documentation .

Tip: Do not forget to define write permissions to the "bootstrap" and "storage" folders during deploying.
