A Laravel simple blog

This is a simple Laravel project that is used as starting point for my intermediate/advanced laravel course.

It's a simple blog platform, where users can create posts and comments. There is an 'admin area' where you can publish/unpublish posts, and create users.

Disclaimer

The purpose of this project is skip the basic laravel app-building phase and get started with more advanced topics.

There are many refactors, optimizations and best practices to be implemented, I know ;) but that's intended! Please don't open issues/PR for this kind of stuff, but I am more than open for suggestions.

Usage

Install as a normal laravel app (I suggest to use Laradock) Run npm install and composer install to install all dependencies. Generate assets with npm run development (or npm run watch)

Run migrations and seed the database with php artisan migrate --seed. This will create 3 basic users for the 3 roles (superadmin, admin and editor):

Custom `artisan` commands

Generate 100 fake posts

php artisan posts:generate 100

Generate 10 fake posts

php artisan users:generate 10
