        // ...
	   'Distilleries\FormBuilder\FormBuilderServiceProvider',
       'Distilleries\DatatableBuilder\DatatableBuilderServiceProvider',
    ]
```

And Facade (also in `config/app.php`)

```
    'aliases' => [
        // ...

        'Datatable'       => 'Distilleries\DatatableBuilder\Facades\DatatableBuilder',
