Requirements
- You have up to 48 hours to submit
- Create a simple RESTful API written in Laravel (latest version)
- All responses should be JSON
- All requests should be JSON
- Simple UI Interface implemented in a JS Framework (plus if Vue)
The Exercise
The exercise consists of users, subscriptions and products. A user will have the ability to add & remove products within their account. A user must have an active subscription to add a product to their account.
Users
Each user must have, but is not limited to:
- ID
- First Name
- Last Name
- Email (unique)
Please note:
- These users are the only users that are able to make requests via the API.
- User creation/maintenance is not done through the API (see Database section below).
- Users can own many products
ProductUser Pivot

- id
- user_id
- product_id
Products
Each product must have, but is not limited to:
- ID
- Name
- Description
- Price
- Image
Database
- MySQL
- All tables in the database must be created programmatically
- The user table should be seeded with at least five users
- Run
php artisan db:seedto seed the database with 10 users.

Authentication
You must implement an authentication system so that the API knows which of the users is making the request.
- All requests should ensure that an authorized user is making the request. In the event of an unauthorized user, an error should be thrown.
