[](#for-back-end)

### 1.1 Installation

[](#11-installation)

If you have composer installed globally you can run:

```
composer require balmjs/laravel-balm
```

Then run these commands to publish assets and config:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Balm\Runtime\BalmServiceProvider" --force
```

⚠️ `--force`: overwrite `package.json` or manual edit it:

```
{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "balm",
    "prod": "balm -p"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "balm": "^3.0.0-rc.2"
  }
}
```

### 1.2 Configuration

[](#12-configuration)

You should use Laravel's global `balm` function within your **views** to load the appropriately hashed asset. The `balm` function will automatically determine the current name of the hashed file:

```

```

For Front-end
-------------

  // More Config
};
