Laravel Backend Api First Template

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 :
