This project is developed using Laravel Herd — the fastest way to get a Laravel environment running on your machine. It's recommended for contributors too.
- Laravel Herd installed
- PHP 8.2+
- Composer
- Node.js & npm
- Your preferred database (see below)
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/opensource_laravelprojects.git
cd opensource_laravelprojects
# Navigate to a specific project
cd project-name
# Install dependencies
composer install
npm install && npm run dev
# Set up environment
cp .env.example .env
php artisan key:generate
# Run migrations
php artisan migrate
# With Herd, your site is already served automatically at:
# http://project-name.testNo need to run
php artisan serveif you're using Herd — it handles that for you automatically.
This repository supports multiple database drivers. Each project specifies which one it uses in its own .env.example.
Primary database: PostgreSQL (used for most projects)
DB_CONNECTION=pgsql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=5432
DB_DATABASE=your_database
DB_USERNAME=your_username
DB_PASSWORD=your_passwordDB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=your_database
DB_USERNAME=your_username
DB_PASSWORD=your_passwordDB_CONNECTION=mongodb
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=27017
DB_DATABASE=your_databaseInstall the MongoDB Laravel driver:
composer require mongodb/laravel-mongodb
DB_CONNECTION=sqlite
# DB_DATABASE defaults to database/database.sqlitetouch database/database.sqlite
php artisan migrateSQLite is great for quickly testing or contributing without setting up a full database server.
If you're using Herd Pro, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and other services are built in — just enable them from the Herd menu. No separate installation needed.
For the free version of Herd, you can install databases separately via DBngin (recommended) or Homebrew.
