• Create a MySQL database for this project
• Copy .env.example to .env and fill in the MySQL database details (you can ignore the Redis stuff)
• Install Composer and run composer install

• Run php artisan key:generate
• Either run Apache in the ./public directory, or run php -S localhost:8000 server.php and visit http://localhost:8000

Cloud9 Setup Instructions
