Now add the service provider in config/app.php file:

'providers' => [
    // ...
        Seymuromarov\Dater\DaterServiceProvider::class,
],

after this add alias in config/app.php file:

'aliases' => [
 //...
        'Dater' => Seymuromarov\Dater\Facades\Dater::class,
 ],

use command (optional):

composer dump-autoload

use Seymuromarov\Dater\Facades\Dater; //it is not necessary
