Using the PHP 7 Starter kit

This starter kit is designed to use with ease. It has well defined folder structure.

• Can define environment variables in .env file and can call them using env() function. A sample env file is given (.env.example).
• src/app folder has the controllers, libraries, models and repositories.

• src/routes.php can have the routes for the application. For more details on the routing, please check the PHRoute documentation.
• All the Input values can be retrieved using Laravel style. To get all input values, use Input::all(), and to get a specific value use Input::get('item').
• phpcs is configured. So, can make the code comply with PSR standards.
• url() function will give you the URL of the application. You can append a part of URL by passing it as an argument. Eg: url('users') will give you http://{url-of-app}/users.
• storage_path(), function will give you the relative path for the storage folder. So you can save the uploaded files there.
• public_path(), function will give you the relative path for the web folder.
