If you are starting a new project, you can use our git repo to have everything pre-installed to save your time.

Please follow installation steps mentioned in "Laravel 5.1" but with following change in composer.

composer changes

We Assume, your composer already includes "laravel/framework": "5.2.*",

laravelcollective/html

Now, instead of "laravelcollective/html": "5.1.*",

Use "laravelcollective/html": "5.2.*",

eloquent-taggable

Instead of "cviebrock/eloquent-taggable": "dev-master",

Use "cviebrock/eloquent-taggable": "dev-laravel-5-refactor",

Finally your composer.json, require array should have these

"laravelcollective/html": "5.2.",
"cartalyst/sentinel": "2.0.",
"cviebrock/eloquent-sluggable": "dev-master",
"cviebrock/eloquent-taggable": "dev-laravel-5-refactor",

Routes changes

We need to wrap all routes in routes.php with web middleware, like below

Route::group(['middleware' => 'web'], function () {
​
    /*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Application Routes
|------------------------------------------------------------------
​
​
...
//all other routes
...
​
Route::get('{name?}', 'JoshController@showFrontEndView');
# End of frontend views
​
});
