🐘 What is this project?

It's a simple job posting app built with Laravel.

It is my first contact with PHP's Laravel framework, and I was really chocked on how amazing the framework is and how easy it makes building web applications.

This project is from the YouTube "Laravel From Scratch 2022" course.

The main technologies are:

• PHP
• Laravel
• MySQL database
• Tailwind CSS

Usage

Database Setup

This app uses MySQL. To use something different, open up config/Database.php and change the default driver.

To use MySQL, make sure you install it, setup a database and then add your db credentials(database, username and password) to the .env.example file and rename it to .env

Migrations

To create all the necessary tables and columns, run the following

php artisan migrate

Seeding The Database

To add the dummy listings with a single user, run the following

php artisan db:seed

File Uploading

When uploading listing files, they go to "storage/app/public". Create a symlink with the following command to make them publicly accessible.

php artisan storage:link

Running the App

Upload the files to your document root, Valet folder or run

php artisan serve
