===================

[](#laravel-api-starter)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### With Docker

[](#with-docker)

Docker helps a ton by providing us a unison development environment that allows us to quickly install new dependencies and share the configuration of those.

Begin by pulling the docker containers and booting docker.

```
docker-compose up --build -d
```

Then get into the `app` container.

```
docker exec -it app bash
```

Where you'll run the following commands.

```
cp .env.example .env
composer install
pa key:generate
pa migrate
pa db:seed
```

### Without Docker

[](#without-docker)

You can also run without Docker, but you'll have to do the walk of atonement.

Start by setting up your environment and installing dependencies.

Then run the following to copy the `.env` file and fill it accordingly:

```
cp .env.example .env
```

Then run the following commands to get it all booted up.

```
composer install
php artisan key:generate
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed
```
