Yo.

i have been learning and using Laravel in the past 3 years and i like it , i fell in love with its simplicity, extensive features , community and its convention over configuration principle ! if you follow the rules you can create APIs in no time !

I.

usually create API's and back-end projects, and Laravel is always my go to, even though its a full-stack framework but its development experience never fails me and always keeps me performing as efficient as possible .

Yet.

I still repeat some stuff when ever i create a new project , they cant really be conventional like

• user authentication
• profile update and show
• attachments handling

So.

Recently , i created a template for my future projects , it is an API first back-end that has those functionalities ready to use and it has other code that i can use as reference . it has been quite helpful and i am looking forward to make it better .

you can visit the github repo here :

$ git clone https://github.com/hijenhek/laravel-backend-boilerplate 
$ cd laravel-backend-boilerplate 
$ composer install
$ ./vendor/bin/sail/up

it has those functionalities , feel free to comment and review it .

• authentication system - sanctum
• profile fetch and update data
• reset passwords
• email verification
• user roles
• user crud for admins
• public upload example (profile picture)
• local upload example : private attachment
• MFA
• social login

Thanks.
