CoreUI Free Laravel Bootstrap Admin Template

Please help us on Product Hunt and Designer News. Thanks in advance!

Curious why I decided to create CoreUI? Please read this article: Jack of all trades, master of none. Why Bootstrap Admin Templates suck.

CoreUI is based on Bootstrap 4 and offers 6 versions: HTML5 AJAX, HTML5, Angular 2+, React.js & Vue.js, .NET Core 2.

CoreUI is meant to be the UX game changer. Pure & transparent code is devoid of redundant components, so the app is light enough to offer ultimate user experience. This means mobile devices also, where the navigation is just as easy and intuitive as on a desktop or laptop. The CoreUI Layout API lets you customize your project for almost any device – be it Mobile, Web or WebApp – CoreUI covers them all!

How to add a link to the sidebar:

Instructions for CoreUI Free Laravel admin template only. Pro and Vue.js versions have separate instructions.

To add a link to the sidebar - modify seeds file:

my-project/database/seeds/MenusTableSeeder.php

In run() function - add insertLink():

$id = $this->insertLink( $rolesString, $visibleName, $href, $iconString);

$rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
$visibleName - a string caption visible in sidebar
$href - a href, ex. /homepage or http://example.com
$iconString - a string containing valid CoreUI Icon name (kebab-case), ex. cui-speedometer or cui-star

To add a title to the sidebar - use function insertTitle():

$id = $this->insertTitle( $rolesString, $title );

$rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
$title - a string caption visible in sidebar

To add a dropdown menu to the sidebar - use function beginDropdown():

$id = $this->beginDropdown( $rolesString, $visibleName, $iconString);

$rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
$visibleName - a string caption visible in sidebar
$iconString - a string containing valid CoreUI icon name (kebab-case). For example: cui-speedometer or cui-star

To end dropdown section - use function endDropdown().

To add link to dropdown call function insertLink() between function calls beginDropdown() and endDropdown(). Example:

$id = $this->beginDropdown('guest,user,admin', 'Some dropdown', 'cui-puzzle');
$id = $this->insertLink('guest,user,admin', 'Dropdown name', 'http://example.com');
$this->endDropdown();

IMPORTANT - At the end of run() function, call joinAllByTransaction() function:

$this->joinAllByTransaction();

Once done with seeds file edit, run:

$ php artisan migrate:refresh --seed
# This command also rollbacks database and migrates it again.

Support CoreUI Development

CoreUI is an MIT licensed open source project and completely free to use. However, the amount of effort needed to maintain and develop new features for the project is not sustainable without proper financial backing. You can support development by donating on PayPal, buying CoreUI Pro Version or buying one of our premium admin templates.

As of now I am exploring the possibility of working on CoreUI fulltime - if you are a business that is building core products using CoreUI, I am also open to conversations regarding custom sponsorship / consulting arrangements. Get in touch on Twitter.
