README

This package provides a blogging-focused starting template for the Prezet Markdown Blogging Engine [1]. It sets up routes, controllers, views, CSS, and content structure suitable for a blog site.

The installer copies the necessary files into your Laravel application and then removes this package, leaving you with the template files to modify as needed.

Installation

Require the package:
```
composer require prezet/blog-template --dev
```
(Note: We install as a dev dependency since the package removes itself after installation).
Run the installer:
```
php artisan blog-template:install
```
This command will:
- Copy routes, controllers, views, CSS, content stubs, and Vite configuration into your application.
- Install required Node dependencies (tailwindcss, alpinejs, etc.).
- Remove the prezet/blog-template package from your Composer dependencies.
