Opinionated Laravel Template
============================

[](#opinionated-laravel-template)

This is a template I use when starting a new Laravel project. It is opinionated and uses the conventions I prefer to work with day-in, day-out.

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

[](#installation)

You can create a new project via composer:

```
composer create-project lukeraymonddowning/laravel-template
```
