This is a forked version of an open source forum that was built and maintained at Laracasts.com.
We have used laravel-heyman package to re-write some it's code as an example usage.
Visit: https://github.com/imanghafoori1/laravel-heyman
- To run this project, you must have PHP 7 installed.
- You should setup a host on your web server for your local domain. For this you could also configure Laravel Homestead or Valet.
- The css and js assets are pre-compiled and put in the public folder, hence you do not need to run install npm
- Database driver is already set to sqlite, and a seeded, ready to use version of sqlite database is provided and configured for you, hence there is no need to migrate or seed the database to get started. (see database/database.sqlite)
- On windows you can run the tests with running 'phpunit' command
Begin by cloning this repository to your machine, and installing all Composer dependencies.
git clone git@github.com:imanghafoori1/council.git
cd council && composer install
php artisan serve
Next, boot up a server and visit your forum. If using a tool like Laravel Valet, of course the URL will default to http://council.test.
