What it does

Adds a ready‑made admin dashboard to a Laravel app so you can manage data, users and settings without writing UI code.

Install / run
composer require z-song/laravel-admin
When to use it
  • You already have a Laravel back‑end and need an internal CRUD UI quickly.
  • Your team needs role‑based access control and a menu system for admin users.
  • You want to generate admin pages (lists, forms, charts) without hand‑coding HTML.
Quick start
  1. 11️⃣ Run the installer to publish assets and create the default admin user: `php artisan admin:install`
  2. 22️⃣ Migrate the package tables (users, roles, permissions, menu, etc.): `php artisan migrate`
  3. 33️⃣ Log in at `http://your-app.test/admin` with the default credentials (email: admin@example.com, password: admin) and change the password immediately.
  4. 44️⃣ Create a CRUD controller for a model, e.g.: `php artisan admin:make PostController --model=App\\Models\\Post`
  5. 55️⃣ Visit `http://your-app.test/admin/posts` – the generated list, filter and edit forms are ready to use.
Ready-to-paste prompt
php artisan admin:make OrderController --model=App\\Models\\Order && php artisan admin:import OrderController
Heads up: Laravel‑Admin only works on Laravel 5.5+ and requires PHP 7.2 or higher plus the extensions mbstring, openssl, PDO, and GD; missing any of these will cause the install command to fail.
