README

The code here is not very organized yet. We have started to port the pieces of all the apps we've built into a cohesive whole. So we have started putting it all here, but at the same time, some of this code needs to be cleaned up, separated to separate packages (ie: user access tokens) and, in general, needs tests added.

Synopsis

Baseline is a starting point for custom lead generation applications. We build mid-size platforms for lead networks and lead generation professionals. Our clients are usually small to mid-size companies who are looking to do lead management in a specific way that cannot be done with the current applications on the market. Sample projects include one-click deploying of 1,000+ domain name geo-templated websites, real-time call routing applications, and even simple projects like simple-form-to-ping-tree setups.

Motivation

At this point in time (Dec 2015), no all-around Laravel starting point seems to exist. Pyro is great, but it's more CMS and less "small self contained app that is easy to build from." The idea with baseline is (was) to do a rapid fire install, and have a working site with user, role, assets, ajax, themes, api, and working services (like pusher, twilio, mailchimp, etc). After the install, then it would be as if you had built a Laravel app from scratch (vs using a CMS).

It can be argued that maybe building bolt-ons to a cms like Pyro or October could work, at the end of the day, the idea is to be as "laravely" as possible and also have something that can be stripped apart piece by piece if desired without the need to rely entirely on a CMS framework.

The goal of baseline is NOT to be a framework or a final app. It's litterally just a starting point.
