Everything you need to start a production-ready Laravel+PostgreSQL+jQuery+Bootstrap system, in 5 minutes or less!
Is it really possible to start a new Laravel project, completely from scratch, and be operational, complete with a Dockerized PHP, Nginx, PostgreSQL and Redis environment that's ready for either a devbox or production environment...
In less than 5 minutes?
Now it is!
tl;dr: To get started, just do this:
composer create-project phpexperts/laravel-quickstart projectname
git clone https://github.com/phpexpertsinc/laravel_quickstart.git
cd laravel_quickstart
./install.sh
Follow the prompts. And you'll be done in under 5 minutes! A complete Linux, Nginx, PostgreSQL and PHP (LEPP) stack + Redis. MariaDB and Memcache will be coming soon!
- Watch the Laravel QuickStarter HOWTO installation video!
- Shortens the time to start a fresh Laravel site from 1-3 hours to 3-5 minutes.
- Full dockerized webstack ready for deployment on either dev boxes or docker cloud hosts, like Google App Engine.
- Uses the latest version of PHP, v7.4.
- Instantly available, pre-configured Laravel installation, using PostgreSQL and Redis.
- Template layouts are already installed.
- Laravel's authentication system is already installed and configured.
- Requires no knowledge of Laravel, Docker, or even PHP. So it's great for people who are just beginning.
- Fully scriptable and ready for CI builds.
This script requires absolutely no skill to setup the entire system. If you want
to deploy it to, say, a DigitalOcean Docker Droplet, all you
would have to do is, literally, upload your project to the server and then run
the ./install.sh and you'd instantly have a live server. How cool is that?!
This directly builds upon my new project DockerPHP. It allows you to dockerize any PHP app in under 5 minutes, by executing two simple commands that require very little to no skill.
This is definitely easier than setting up a Wamp server. And faster, too!
This project took me about 6 hours to create and another 4 to polish it, all in one day and ALLL night! Normally, it takes about 2 or 3 hours for me to bring a project to this level of development, but now the installer does everything in under 3 minutes!
