I have an existing laravel project with AlpineJS. I wanted to integrate authentication but not able to find a proper solution having in mind I DONT USE VUE. I have done this with Vue but just wanted to know if there's an updated guide for Laravel with Alpine JS. I tried to look into documentation but wasnt able to find something related.
composer require laravel/ui
php artisan ui:auth
Do I still need to do this? Any suggestions for best practices?
Alpine is just a lightweight framework for DOM manipulation, it's not going to provide any authentication functionality alone so you will need to add something to your project.
If you're wanting to add authentication to your application, you'll want to consider something like Laravel Fortify which is a headless front end agnostic authentication solution. There are starter kits such as Breeze or Jetstream, however, adding either of these boilerplate start kits to existing projects can have issues. Some people recommend starting a new project, installing one of them and them porting your existing functionality across (this will obviously depend on the scale of your project).

This may silly question. But I am going to start new project. I am quite confused which framework is best out of Codegniter 3 and Laravel 5.
What is the main difference between them.
Thanks in Advance
Right now, I personally prefer Laravel since it supports PHP7 unlike CodeIgniter (I still haven't read if CodeIgniter 3 supports PHP7). And based on personal experience, Laravel (through Eloquent) has "beautifully-written-codes".
Here are some references for you to check out: (I made sure to post both sides to not be bias)

Each framework have their own features and capabilities, used during the development of application. Laravel is one of the highly used, open-source modern web application framework that designs customized web applications quickly and easily.Laravel is used not only for big project but also best to use for small project.
Best framework in 2018
If you want a framework with exceptional performance, with nearly no configuration, not using cmd and not interested with large scale libraries and also your project is in small scale it's better to use codeIgniter.
CodeIgniter3 vs Laravel5
Both framework are good in there place.
Laravel made from multiple open source project which make laravel more efficient , reliable and secure.
Where, laravel used blade engine.
It used composer for package manager.
It provide unit testing.
It provide more security.
It provide beautiful redis queue front portal called laravel horizon.
Disadvantage : laravel used predis which is slower, because it is written in php.where phpredis is more faster, but laravel 5.* Don't support it.
I will recommend you to use Laravel beacuse of:
Built in authentication
Awesome migrations
Artisan commands to do anything in your project
Built in pagination (It's took long in Codeigniter)
Eloquent (Very easy way to interact with your database)
Relationships
Routes
Easy API building
Easy debugging
Huge number of packages and libraries etc.
this is not a code question about laravel 5.*, it's more like to know if you guys develop your applications using packages ("package driven development" ? Not sure if this is the right definition).
What I mean is: Instead of building an application and create controllers in app/Http/Controllers/, you wrap everything in a package and then 'require' that package using composer (like a wordpress plugin).
I'm trying to think in a way to isolate the core Laravel from my specific application and save time later when it's time to upgrade when a new Laravel version is available.
In my case I'm having some issues moving from version 5.2 to 5.3 because I have some customization in the registration and login process - It might be because I'm not using the right approach to write the code (patterns), so I'd like to hear from more experienced Laravel developers.
Thanks!
The great thing about Laravel, there's almost always a package for what you want to do. You can either create your packages as packages on composer, or you can install a module package and create them as modules.
For my projects I tend to use caffeinated/modules. I've tried a few and IMO it's the easiest to use.
I'm trying to integrate the Quickbooks Online API into Laravel 5. I've got the code working outside of Laravel using the Consolibyte package. But its written in what I'll call a classic PHP style - meaning there are a number of REQUIRE_ONCE files etc. I'm sure I can crank through and integrate it all, but in the interest of saving time, I'm wondering if anyone else knows of a package for Laravel 5 which already does this?
Ultimately I need to be able to create Customers, Vendors and Invoices. Don't really need the rest of the functionality that the Consolibyte package uses (which is a great package by the way).
If you're using this code:
https://github.com/consolibyte/quickbooks-php
You only need to require one file. There's no real work required to get this working in Laravel. Just do this in your Laravel app:
require_once './QuickBooks.php';
And you're done.
For anyone else looking to solve this problem, this obscure blog post will save your life. It's a lot to post here, but he essentially uses the consolibyte/quickbooks-php, but wraps it up in creamy Laravel goodness so you can see the "under the hood" objects you need to set up so that you don't break the framework.
I followed the instructions, with some alterations for my app, and it authorized first try (Laravel 5.2).
It's not perfect, but it's as clean as you can get for Laravel right now.
Major props to both the article writer Pawan and the package author Keith Palmer Jr!
You can use this one instead its fully enabled to be installed by composer in Laravel or Yii2. I installed it in Yii2.
https://github.com/beanworks/quickbooks-online-v3-sdk install quickbooks from this url and then use the below url to implement oauth
https://github.com/IntuitDeveloper/oauth-php
You can easily make routes for oauth steps involved and there are samples in the later repo which can be used to learn how to post and query objects from quickbook.
I'm coming back to programming with Laravel by reading the documentation in the official website. Now I realized there is a 5.0 version and I'm trying it, but by I've noticed something called "scaffolding for user registration and authentication" and I don't understand it at all.
Maybe it's because my main language is Spanish and that word doesn't make sense for me in this context, but I'm really confused.
In the website, the paragraph says this:
Laravel ships with scaffolding for user registration and authentication. If you would like to remove this scaffolding, use the fresh Artisan command:
php artisan fresh
So I would like to know what does it exactly mean and what does it stand for.
The term Scaffolding roughly aims to a quickly set up skeleton for an app or your project.
The main purpose of Scaffolding is to speed your workflow rather than creating it new.
Here is the JeffreyWay/Laravel-4-Generators for your reference.
If you don't want you shall use php artisan fresh as you said in your question.
To get the generator back from your composer
composer require laracasts/generators --dev
Referring to my own answer in another question, I believe that Wikipedia provides a narrow and restricted view. Scaffolding is not just for CRUD operations on top of a database. Scaffolding has a broader objective to give you a skeleton app for any kind of technology.
Yeoman is a modern and useful tool for scaffolding. Using their own words:
The web's scaffolding tool for modern webapps
What's Yeoman?
Yeoman helps you to kickstart new projects, prescribing best practices
and tools to help you stay productive.
To do so, we provide a generator ecosystem. A generator is basically a
plugin that can be run with the yo command to scaffold complete
projects or useful parts.
Through our official Generators, we promote the "Yeoman workflow".
This workflow is a robust and opinionated client-side stack,
comprising tools and frameworks that can help developers quickly build
beautiful web applications. We take care of providing everything
needed to get started without any of the normal headaches associated
with a manual setup.
With a modular architecture that can scale out of the box, we leverage
the success and lessons learned from several open-source communities
to ensure the stack developers use is as intelligent as possible.
As firm believers in good documentation and well thought out build
processes, Yeoman includes support for linting, testing, minification
and much more, so developers can focus on solutions rather than
worrying about the little things.
That's it. Use scaffolding to create a quick-start application to work as an example or the foundation of your solution. It makes you productive faster them building things from scratch.
i just learned NEOS, usually i do project using laravel framework.
Now i try to use typo3 NEOS, because people said that typo3 is half MVC half CMS.
i just covered the basic frontend, and now i try to do the backend stuff.
My question is, how to handle the backend stuff in neos?
especially about form and database handling (like registration and login stuff).
thanks for your attention, i know this is a basic stuff. But i can't find any good tutorials out there.
i'm using typo3 NEOS 1.2.1
For forms there is a simple tutorial
What do you mean with database handling?
Frontend user registration? There are some problems right now with that but you may take a look at it here.
TYPO3 Neos is CMS build on TYPO3 Flow framework - take a look at Flow documentation - in Quickstart there is part how to create simple package in few minutes using ./flow kickstart:*. You can use pure Flow packages beside Neos (that requires putting this package routes above neos in main Routes.yaml) or transform Flow package into Neos plugin. I think it's worth to do some reading first..
