It contains three sections:

Static Layout, Controller and Pages
Authenticated User Layout and Pages

It provides a base template for the creation of a "SaaS" style application, omitting sections that may tie to a specific vendor such as a payment system.

Installation

Remember to run composer install, php artisan migrate, php artisan key:generate to make sure a key is generated, all tables are created, and packages correctly installed.

Alternatively, you may use composer setup to install all packages, set a key, migrate and other common Laravel setup steps (using pnpm for Node.js package management). Using composer setup-npm will perform the same process but using npm for package management.

Via Laravel Herd

One-click install a new application using this starter kit through Laravel Herd:

Via the Laravel Installer

Create a new Laravel application using this starter kit through the official Laravel Installer:

  laravel new my-app --using=adygcode/base-blade-kit

to use PNPM in place of NPM use:

  laravel new my-app -pnpm --using=adygcode/base-blade-kit

To install with Pest, PNPM, Livewire, initialise a git repo, SQLite, ... (Typed in on a single command line):

  laravel new my-app --pnpm --git --database=sqlite \
    --pest --using=adygcode/base-blade-kit

In either case, you must replace my-app with the name of your project, using kebab-case. For example duck-quack-paddle.
