Build an admin panel fast - Laravel 5, Bootstrap, interface for CRUD, Backup, Auth, Media Manager

Dick - The Admin Panel Builder for Laravel

Dick helps you kickstart your Laravel project, providing baseline code and interface for what any/many projects will need:

• CRUD interface (client-friendly GUI for managing entities using Eloquent, inspired by Grocery Crud for CodeIgniter);
• Authentication, user, role and permission management (using Laravel Auth & Entrust);
• Superadmin tools:
  • file & database backup;
  • log file viewer;
  • file manager;
  • settings manager;
• Page Manager (create admin panels for all your pages, even if they need different types of fields or a different number of fields);

How to create a new CRUD Panel for an entity

1. Generate a new resource controller in the command line:

php artisan make:controller ArticleController

2. Modify the new controller to extend CrudController and delete or comment any methods you don't need.

3. Create a model for your entity.

php artisan make:model Models/Article

4. Create a route for it in routes.php:

Route::resource('article', 'ArticleController');
