Installing Demo require Backpack pro

[Asdita Prasetya]

I just want to ask, why does installing a backpack demo require a backpack pro account?

Can i use this demo using backpack free account?

Hello there! Thanks for opening your first issue on this repo!

Just a heads-up: Here at Backpack we use Github Issues only for tracking bugs. Talk about new features is also acceptable. This helps a lot in keeping our focus on improving Backpack. If you issue is not a bug/feature, please help us out by closing the issue yourself and posting in the appropriate medium (see below). If you're not sure where it fits, it's ok, a community member will probably reply to help you with that.

Backpack communication mediums:

• Bug Reports, Feature Requests - Github Issues (here);
• Quick help (How do I do X) - Gitter Chatroom;
• Long questions (I have done X and Y and it won't do Z wtf) - Stackoverflow, using the backpack-for-laravel tag;

Please keep in mind Backpack offers no official / paid support. Whatever help you receive here, on Gitter, Slack or Stackoverflow is thanks to our awesome awesome community members, who give up some of their time to help their peers. If you want to join our community, just start pitching in. We take pride in being a welcoming bunch.

Thank you!

Hey @hellodit ,

Indeed - in order to show off ALL backpack features, including the PRO ones, our demo uses backpack/pro too. That's why it requires a user & token, to access the closed-source package..

We're considering creating a separate demo without backpack/pro, but right now you can do that using:

# create a new laravel project
laravel new someprojectname
cd someprojectname

# TODO: create a new db and use it in your .env file

# install backpack
composer require backpack/crud
php artisan backpack:install

Thanks @tabacitu for your answer,
it will be nice if users have the option to install demos with or without pro features.
